About the Frogs set: Includes four stamps showcasing the beauty and diversity of different North American frog species: Pacific tree frog, northern leopard frog, American green tree frog, and squirrel tree frog. Original artwork by Nancy Stahl consisting of shades of green and brown to represent how these frogs blend in with their native environments.
History the stamp represents: One of the most beautiful and popular frogs in North America is the American green tree frog. It is approximately 2.5 inches long and bright yellow-green to olive green in color. However, like other amphibians, it can change its color. Typically the American green tree frog is more yellow when it is calling and a darker green when at rest.
Even though the American green tree frog frightens easily and can’t be handled too often, it is a common pet. It is easy to care for and doesn’t need artificial heating. Its only requirement is a tall aquarium and foliage to climb on. Many owners claim these frogs have distinct personalities and are very curious. These frogs are known to chase and eat faster insects instead of the slow-moving ones. American green tree frogs can become obese as pets and it’s wise to make sure they are given room to move and catch their food.
Frogs are known as an indicator species. The more frogs in an area, the healthier that region is. As of 2019, the American green tree frog is a species of least concern, but a decrease in its numbers could mean a problem in its habitat.
