What is the scientific name of this frog. The current description of this frog (including the name), could include tonnes of different frogs, including White's tree frog, American green tree frog and Japanese tree frog. If you would like to continue with this article, try to go off the White's tree frog article, as it is featured. Also, whenever you create an animal article, I suggest starting with the taxobox to prevent instant deletion. -- liquidGhoul 04:07, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
it seems to have many grammatical and syntax errors, but i've fixed up everything i could find. i don't know if the facts are verified or not, so can people figure these things out? it seems more like a pet store instruction manual than a species article. FyreNWater 07:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Is the "As pets" section really nessesary? I think it just makes it look more like a pet guide 18 May 2008
Agreed: I think that it would suffice to state that it is or can be kept as a pet. Furthermore, that entire section has no sources, and was challenged almost a year ago. I suggest it be removed altogether. Foxi tails ( talk) 02:50, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
- I agree. It looks like a "how to" guide, which is not suitable for Wikipedia. Dger ( talk) 21:42, 27 April 2011 (UTC)
I think more should be said about it's peculiar loud scream it lets out as self defense. It seems to be a quite unique feature that sets it apart from other frogs. Sadly, I can't find many sources that even talk about it. Is it really rare for them to scream? I used to catch them when I was little, and they wouldn't hesitate to scream even if I didn't touch them. There are also a bunch of youtube videos that show them screaming a lot too. Perhaps the behavior just varies a bit from individual to individual?
- It's called a distress call, and it is common in nearly all frogs. It sounds different for each species, I've heard some that sound like sheep. Some species are also more likely to distress call than others, which could be included in the article if there is any sources out there about it. -- liquidGhoul ( talk) 00:07, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Can someone explain Green (Bronze) frog? The parenthesis don't look right. Is that how it would appear in a field guide? Kingturtle ( talk) 21:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
The competing range map at right treats Canada as if it didn't exist in the biological world. It offers no information that is not better presented in the map in the infobox. It should be deleted from this article. If there are no objections after a few weeks, someone with this page on their watchlist might be bold enough to do so. -- Wetman ( talk) 07:42, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
- Done. DGERobertson ( talk) 19:00, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
The information on the range of the Bronze frog in this article appears to be wrong, as they also exist on the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland. There is no doubt about my identification; I have a young female, perhaps in her second year--her lower half is distinctively bronze, and she has the bright green upper lip. I remember listening to their banjo call at night when I was a kid. They are obviously not confined to the southern United States. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sealevel29 ( talk • contribs) 02:26, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
