Southern Corroboree Frog! 

• Found in marshlands and sclerophyll forests under logs, and subalpine bogs of south-eastern NSW and the ACT.
• They are largely nocturnal but are also occasionally active during the day on cloudy days.
• Corroboree Frogs have a typical amphibian life cycle with an aquatic tadpole stage and terrestrial frog stage.
• They contribute to the richness of the alpine ecosystem in which they're found, even as tiny tadpoles, removing the algae from the beautiful alpine ponds, keeping the water crystal clear, which benefits other aquatic plants and animals.
• They eat small invertebrates, particularly small black ants.
• 2.5 – 3 cm body length.
• They are toxic, they secrete a poisonous alkaloid from its skin which is toxic to predators
• It’s bright colours warn that it is poisonous
• Walks rather than jumps
• Winter torpor: inactive during the winter, remaining under logs or litter on the woodland floor.
