Common Name: Bullfrog or Greenfrog
Family: True Frogs (Ranidae)
Genus: Rana
Species: Catesbeianus or clamitans
Observer(s): Noah Charney
Notes: I didn't get a good look at the body before this frog ducked under and swam away. The best way to distinguish the two species is the ridge that extends down the back of green frogs; but just curls around behind bullfrog's eardrums. I did hear bullfrogs calling in the distance when I saw this frog.
