Found a rare blue frog in our backyard pond in Massachusetts. Is anyone interested
We have a small frog pond that’s been here for over 10 years, and every frog we’ve ever seen has been the normal green/brown color. Today we found this bright blue frog. From what I’ve been told, it may have a rare genetic condition called axanthism.
We took photos and currently have it in a temporary container with damp moss and a shallow dish of dechlorinated water while we figure out who to contact. Is there anyone (researchers, universities, wildlife biologists, museums, etc.) who would be interested in documenting or studying it? We’re in western Massachusetts.
