Above you see a wood frog, a native North American amphibian, and the species found further north than any other. They prefer to breed in vernal pools, and during the breeding season their quacking calls make you think there are invisible ducks in the pond. When I worked at Drumlin Farm I encountered them frequently.
If you would like me to take a picture of one of Zoo New England's animals, please donate $5.00 to the New England Chapter of the American Association of Zoo Keepers! I'll even send you a sticker.
Still forthcoming: Pictures of prairie dogs and something large (donor specified elephant, rhino, hippo or giraffe).
