Message: [QUOTE="Wayfarin, post: 524180, member: 19222"] Tree frogs and spring peepers can climb smooth surfaces easily and can ascend trees and tall shrubs. I don't have any doubts that they can climb the steep sides of pools (back when we had a swimming pool, toads and green frogs would get trapped after falling in, but tree frogs could easily escape.) Green frogs? They can't climb. I can see them jumping 3' to escape an enclosure, but how do they even know that there's a water garden behind the 31" wall? Green frogs are barely distinct from bullfrogs. The only way to tell them apart is the dorsolateral ridges that stretch down the green frog's back. Their tadpoles are hard to tell apart (though bullfrog tadpoles can grow huge). [/QUOTE]
