Frogs and Toads of Indiana

Frogs and Toads of Indiana, The Education Store, Purdue Extension.

Indiana is home to 17 frog and toad species, and this 50-page, full-color book covers all of them. For each species, the book includes full-color photos, a physical description, a list of similar species, and a description of important aspects of their ecology and behavior. About 300 million years ago, amphibians became the first vertebrates to emerge onto land. Today, amphibians as a group are of global conservation concern. Over the last 30 years, we have seen an alarming decline in amphibian populations. Use this book to learn more about some of the important creatures that share this planet with us.
