Scientists race to study the Amazon’s frogs before they disappear

MANAUS, Brazil — Crouched over the leaf litter, where dry leaves accumulate on the forest floor, a researcher tries to capture a distinct croak using a directional microphone.

My brother asked if the trill sound was a bird or frog in the previous video.

8 years ago one night this time of year I heard a frog trilling under my tractor. I got a flashlight and lay down, got a bit under the car and started filming with my phone. Five minutes later the frog was still just staring at me. So I did a trill, which was short and only vaguely reminiscent of a real trill. THEN the frog trilled back!!! The frog was a professional!

I’m standing on a dirt road with my car turned off between two marshy wet lands and a little pond about 40 minutes after sunset. Mostly the video is very dark, some after sunset sky light is visible when I’m facing west.

There are so many frogs of different types talking to each other!
