frogs are small, fascinating amphibians known for their translucent
skin, which makes many of their internal organs—like the heart and
intestines—visible through their belly. They belong to the family
Centrolenidae and are mostly found in the rainforests of Central and
South America, especially near streams where they lay their eggs. The
transparency helps them camouflage from predators by blending in with
leaves and light

This baby Arizona toad, or toadlet, was measured by ARC Biologists as a
part of our standard procedures for collecting data during wildlife
surveys. But you might be wondering, why does the measurement of a
toadlet matter? Isn’t just knowing that it’s a baby enough?
While it’s always delightful to find the young of any native species
while surveying, knowing the precise measurements of the individuals is
necessary for a number of reasons, like:
1. Some species have known growth rates. Therefore, if we know frogs can
get to be 1 inch in length by the time they’re a year old, depending on
conditions, measuring them can help us estimate their ages and the time
that they hatched.
2. Knowing the season that hatchlings emerged is helpful for
understanding when adults in that region are opting to breed. Are all of
the young we spot in the fall about 6 months old? Well then, we can
investigate more to see if the adults mainly breed in t
