Ranas y sapos.

Las ranas se mencionan en la Biblia, más famosa como una de las 10 plagas contra los egipcios, que se encuentran en Éxodo capítulo 8. También se mencionan en Salmos 105:30 y Apocalipsis 16:13.
4
Son de sangre fría; la piel carece de cubierta alguna, son suaves y húmedas, a excepción de la Cecilia, que tiene pequeñas escamas en los pliegos externos del cuerpo; tienen una etapa larvaria acuática, necesitan el medio acuático para completar su ciclo vital; tienen dos pulmones y un corazón de tres cámaras.
5
An absence of an inter-digital membrane (which means they're not adapted to swimming); the last toe ends in a T shape; it has terrestrial reproduction and direct development, which means they have no tadpole stage, they hatch from eggs as fully formed small frogs.
6
The species is named for the loud call the males make at night.
7
Different coquí make different types of sounds, such as:
"Churi- ki – ki – ki", Red-eyed coquí (Eleutherodactylus antillensis), locally known as coquí churí
"Tic – tic – tic", Grass coquí (Eleutherodactylus brittoni)
"Clicks – clicks", Eneida's coquí (Eleutherodactylus eneidae)
Prolonged and fine whistle, Whistling coquí
A low "chip – chip", Bronze coquí, or Richmond's coquí, (Eleutherodactylus richmondi)
Waterdrops falling, Mona coquí (Eleutherodactylus monensis)
"Tuit – tuit – tuit", Golden coquí (Eleutherodactylus jasperi)
8
This sound serves two purposes; "CO" serves to repel males and establish territory, while the "KEE" serves to attract females.
9
The genus is called Eleutherodactylus; there are several, several species that belong to this genus. Here are just a few examples:
Red-eyed coquí (Eleutherodactylus antillensis)
Dwarf coquí (Eleutherodactylus unicolor)
Spotted chirping frog (Eleutherodactylus guttilatus)
Lesser Antillean whistling frog (Eleutherodactylus johnstonei)

The coquí is considered a plague on the islands of Hawaii. They were brought over by boats that were unloading ornamental plants from Puerto Rico.
13
Eneida's coquí (Eleutherodactylus eneidae), golden coquí (Eleutherodactylus jasperi), and the web-footed coquí (Eleutherodactylus karlschmidti)
14
It is our imperative to help protect and conserve the Puerto Rican coquí for the following reasons:
- Aesthetic: its habitats make up an incalculable and valuable resource and provide beauty to the island
- Economical: it brings tourism to the island
- Ethical: we are responsable for making the coquí endangered
- Ecological: it is an important predator to many nocturnal plagues
- Cultural: inside and outside of Puerto Rico, it is a symbol of Puerto Rican culture and its people
15
We can halt Deforestation, conserve the rainforest, develop educational environment programs, reduce pollution, in the air, water, and ground, and help fund research related to the coquí.
