Summary

We used radio-telemetry to study late-season movement and habitat use by Oregon spotted frogs (Rana pretiosa) at Klamath Marsh National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. This data release includes frog location and habitat use data, as well as visualizations of telemetry data. Tracking events occurred roughly weekly between August and December of 2017.

Purpose

Our study adds to the limited data on late-season activity and habitat use in R. pretiosa. Information on seasonal habitat use, movement between seasonal habitat types, and habitats that are particularly valuable for maintaining populations is important to conservation and management. We tracked frogs in areas of the refuge that were grazed by livestock in previous years, as well as in ungrazed areas, allowing for future comparisons.
