Where could one find a northern leopard frog?
The leopard frog has a wide distribution in Minnesota; it is the only amphibian seen in every county in Minnesota. They live in wet prairies and sedge meadows, or along any open body of water. These frogs are migrators; in the spring they will travel up to a mile away from the stream or lake they hibernated in to a permanent breeding pond. After the adult leopard frogs leavee the mating pond in June every year, they can be found wandering in nearby fields, marshes, prairies, and pastures, up to a mile away from standing water. They spend their winters hibernating in the aquatic vegetation in ponds and streams.
