Notes
Large, apparently torpid or ailing male noticed upside-down and submerged in creek pool with eyes closed. When picked up appeared emaciated and weak. However, after warming, frog was energetic and no longer appeared thin. Bullfrogs had previously been seen at this location on March 23, 2001, and would be seen again on July 23, 2002.
