Pesticide Pollution's Tiny Victims: The Coffee Frog Conundrum In Costa Rica's central Pacific region, where lush coffee plantations stretch as far as the eye can see, a new species of tree frog has been discovered.
Dubbed the "coffee frog" due to its affinity for perching on coffee shrubs, this tiny amphibian measures less than 4 centimeters and boasts a striking dark green spotted appearance.
The coffee frog's nocturnal habits allow it to thrive in the plantations, where males sing their short, high pitched calls that can be heard by humans at night.
