The Columbia spotted frog
occurs in central and northeastern Nevada in the Humboldt and Columbia
River basins.
Because these three species are so sensitive and susceptible
to extinction, protection and close management of these species
is critical. While enjoying the beauty of the Humboldt-Toiyabe if
you encounter one of these amphibians, please do not touch or collect
them. These amphibian species can be easily harmed if touched or
collected improperly. For more detailed information regarding these
