Description

The northern leopard frog, once locally abundant in the Grassland, Foothills and Parkland natural regions of central and southern Alberta and in the extreme northeastern region of the province, is now listed as Threatened in Alberta. The goal of the recovery plan is to achieve well-distributed and self-sustaining populations of the northern leopard frog throughout their historical range in Alberta. The plan provides background information on the frog, describes the threats facing the species, outlines proposed strategies to address these threats, and presents an action plan that lists priority actions required to maintain and recover the species.
