The Relict Leopard Frog is a rare species of frog that lives only in a few desert springs in the southwestern United States. Its skin is covered with dark spots that help it hide among rocks and plants.
The relict leopard frog differs from related species by its very limited range and strict dependence on clean permanent water sources in the desert. It is important for nature as part of the local food chain and as an indicator of water body purity.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
