Asian Rice Frog

The Asian Rice Frog (Fejervarya limnocharis) is an amphibious species native to Southeast Asia, specifically residing in Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, and China. Thriving in aquatic environments, it predominantly occupies regions abundant in water, including marshes, ponds, and rice fields. This nocturnal species is often observed foraging for food during the early morning and late evening hours. Notably, the Asian Rice Frog plays a pivotal role in Thailand's agricultural industry, as its presence in rice fields is correlated with increased crop yields. Additionally, its small size and appealing coloration render it a popular choice as a pet.
