In buckets along drift nets Mahmood has established, we retrieve several species of anuran. The sheep frog Hypopachus variolosus (a new FAMILY of frog for me: Microhylidae) below is by far the most unique and bizarre.

funky — my kids think it is ‘very cool’ — how big are they…? Do you think the drift nets would have any utility at Jennings?
They are a pretty small frog. I might go to collect some tomorrow morning, so if I do, I’ll take a photo with some perspective of size. I’m also expecting to get a burrowing toad, which is even more bizarre.
