What is a Pacific tree frog?
Pacific tree frog is a small collar that rides insects that commonly found along the west coast of North America, but is located further east and Alaska. It is also known as the Pacific Choir Frog, although its taxonomic classification was revised in the first decade of the 21st century. All species have a distinctive brown stripe and men have a darker throat than women. Mating occurs during the first half of the year.
The scientific name for the Pacific tree frog is pseudacris regilla , but was considered part of the group called Hyla Regilla . This classification of species was divided into three smaller groups in 2006, one of which was one of them. The other two groups are the frog Sierran Tree or pseudacris sierra and Baja California frog or pseudacris hypochondriaca . All three groups are very similar and are most often recognized by the common name Pacific Tree Frog or Pacific Chorus Frog.
The natural habitat of the Pacific frogs extends from Baja California to the north to the British Columbia. Its common area extends east to Nevada and Montana. There is also one small population on Alaska, which was deliberately introduced into the area during the sixties. He lives mainly in forest areas with wetlands or in small ponds. The frogs sometimes put the eggs in the fleeting ponds, which turns out to be problematic because some of these areas evaporate before the tadpoles can complete with metamorphosis.
The Pacific Tree Frog is a relatively small amphibian and usually has a length of 1 inch (2.54 cm) to 2 inches (5.08 cm). Most often they are green or brown, but there are variations on these colors. One of the characteristics common to all samples is a dark stripe that starts at the tip of the nose and extends around the tympanic. Males are distinguishable because of their noticeably darker neck, the outcome of singing.

Their season of mating dates back from January to May, but mating usually takes place in warmer nights. It is illegal to maintain a Pacific frog as a pet without a license, and obtaining this license can be somewhat difficult.
