Summary[edit] Description: The mountain yellow-legged frog (Rana mucosa) has had a long road from being declared nearly extinct to producing more than two thousand tadpoles in 2015.

All the frogs were released into suitable habitats on the San Bernardino National Forest. Date: 26 May 2016, 22:20. Source: Mountain yellow-legged frog. Author: Pacific Southwest Region 5.
