Home
This frog lives in grassy places and on farms. It leaves near ponds, streams, and other wet places. Scientists saw the frog between 0 and 700 meters above sea level.[1]
This frog lives in many protected parks, for example Chandaka Wildlife Sanctuary, Simlipal Tiger Reserve, Kanger Ghati National Park, Rajaji National Park, Sanjay National Park, and Nauradehi Wildlife Sanctuary.[1]

The female frog lays eggs in pools of rainwater, usually pools that dry up later. The tadpoles grow in the water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. Bad chemicals from farms can hurt this frog: chemicals meant to kill pests and chemicals meant to make plants grow.[1]
