Did You Know?

barking frog

Coronado National Memorial is home to the rare barking frog.  Its presence was first confirmed here in 1993.  The barking frog hibernates for almost the entire year, except for a few weeks in summer after the first heavy rains.  Then, the males can be heard calling from limestone crevices for mates.
