The northern Leopard Frog is native to Minnesota and is found all over the state.
Frogs are amphibians, meaning they can live in water and on land.
Leopard Frogs need moisture, so they like to live in or near streams, ponds, wetlands, lakes and wet meadows. As you walk along the bank of a stream, pond or lake, you'll frequently see or hear them jump into the water as you walk by. They are hard to catch because they can jump fast and far.
