Frogs Of Western Australia |
|
Check out the cute and cool frogs that we have found in Western Australia. Hear their natural calls and watch them on our videos. On these pages we would like to show you how different frogs can be from one another and how they are often nothing like the story books. Discover the frogs that might live in your own backyard or maybe discover a rare or threatened frog species. No frogs were injured in the making of this web site! |

We have spent hours searching, traveling and listening for the frogs in storms, lightning and heavy rains well into the night and have enjoyed every moment of it! We would like to thank the 'Frog Watch' team working from the Western Australian Museum for their time and patience in identifying some of our photos, questions and sounds. |

We will tell you where we heard or saw the frogs so you can enjoy many wonderful hours of watching frogs too. But please never collect them! |

Two out of the five families of frogs in Australia are found in Western Australia. The Hylidae family with 26 genera and the Myobatrachidae family with 51 genera are found in a wide variety of places in Western Australia. Here in Western Australia we have more than 1/3 of the total frogs of Australia with 38 species being only in Western Australia. Its quite possible that not all the frog species have been scientifically discovered yet in Western Australia. Index |
