This morning my daughter called me to take a look at this very sweet little frog. I have have never seen one of these here (Kwa-Zulu Natal) before, so asked a friend (Facebook, because I know some cool people!) and researched it from there.
I discovered that although the species is native to South Africa it is considered invasive, since it has spread rapidly from its original habitat in the Western Cape. (Which is far from where I live!) They lay their eggs in newly created bodies of water. That makes complete sense, as we have recently had quite a bit of rain after a long drought and there are puddles all over our property. We are also set in the hills, adjoining large areas of farmland. This cute little frog measured about 4cm/2cm. Since I am an online seller, I had my tape measure ready!
