Habitat & Geographic Range

Common Jungle Frog

Habitat

Typically found in freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands.

Range

Found in Venezuela.

Lobo gris

Habitat

Found across multiple habitat types including tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests, deserts and xeric shrublands, and tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests, among 13 distinct biome types. Populations are also found in montane and highland environments at higher elevations.

Range

Widely distributed across Africa (Seychelles), Asia (Japan), Europe (5 countries), North America (7 countries), Oceania and the Pacific (Marshall Islands, Vanuatu), and South America (5 countries). Currently classified as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, this species faces significant conservation challenges across its range.

Common Jungle Frog

<em>Leptodactylus leptodactyloides</em>, the common thin-toed frog, is an amphibian in the family Leptodactylidae, primarily recorded from Venezuela and surrounding lowland regions of northern South America. It is classified as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. This terrestrial frog typically inhabits savanna grasslands, gallery forests, and disturbed areas adjacent to wetlands, where it breeds in temporary pools and flooded grasslands during the rainy season. Like other leptodactylid frogs, males call from the water's edge to attract females, and the species produces foam nests for eggs. Diet typically consists of invertebrates including insects, spiders, and worms. The species is part of a diverse and taxonomically complex genus, and population status across its range is not precisely quantified. Biological traits such as adult body length, weight, lifespan, and clutch size remain poorly documented in comprehensive standardized scientific assessments for this species specifically. Conservation efforts benefit from broader amphibian monitoring programs across Venezuela and the surrounding region.

Lobo gris

El lobo gris (Canis lupus), el cánido silvestre más ampliamente distribuido, se extiende desde América del Norte a través de Eurasia en hábitats diversos que incluyen la tundra, bosques y praderas. Son animales altamente sociales que viven en manadas familiares lideradas por una pareja reproductora dominante. Como depredadores clave, los lobos regulan las poblaciones de presas y moldean profundamente la estructura del ecosistema, como demostró su reintroducción en Yellowstone. Antes muy perseguidos, las poblaciones se están recuperando en muchas regiones.
