Haitian Frog
The Haitian Frog, scientifically known as *Eleutherodactylus coqui*, is a small amphibian native to the island of Haiti. This species is part of the diverse family of frogs known as Eleutherodactylidae, which are commonly referred to as "direct-developing frogs" because they do not have a free-living tadpole stage. Instead, their eggs hatch directly into miniature frogs.
These frogs are typically found in moist, forested areas and are known for their distinctive calls, which can be heard during the night. The Haitian Frog plays a crucial role in its ecosystem by controlling insect populations and serving as prey for various predators. Conservation efforts are important for this species due to habitat loss and environmental changes.
