[edit] Scientific Name
What is the scientific name of this frog. The current description of this frog (including the name), could include tonnes of different frogs, including White's tree frog, American green tree frog and Japanese tree frog. If you would like to continue with this article, try to go off the White's tree frog article, as it is featured. Also, whenever you create an animal article, I suggest starting with the taxobox to prevent instant deletion. --liquidGhoul 04:07, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Article quality
it seems to have many grammatical and syntax errors, but i've fixed up everything i could find. i don't know if the facts are verified or not, so can people figure these things out? it seems more like a pet store instruction manual than a species article. FyreNWater 07:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC) Is the "As pets" section really nessesary? I think it just makes it look more like a pet guide 18 May 2008
[edit] The Scream
I think more should be said about it's peculiar loud scream it lets out as self defense. It seems to be a quite unique feature that sets it apart from other frogs. Sadly, I can't find many sources that even talk about it. Is it really rare for them to scream? I used to catch them when I was little, and they wouldn't hesitate to scream even if I didn't touch them. There are also a bunch of youtube videos that show them screaming a lot too. Perhaps the behavior just varies a bit from individual to individual?
- It's called a distress call, and it is common in nearly all frogs. It sounds different for each species, I've heard some that sound like sheep. Some species are also more likely to distress call than others, which could be included in the article if there is any sources out there about it. --liquidGhoul (talk) 00:07, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Bronze?
Can someone explain Green (Bronze) frog? The parenthesis don't look right. Is that how it would appear in a field guide? Kingturtle (talk) 21:25, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
