People have seen this frog in Hongfoshan between 800 and 1500 meters above sea level. It lays eggs in pools that have streams going into them. The tadpoles swim in the pools.[1]
Scientists say this frog is in danger of dying out because it lives in a small place. Earthquakes can kill these frogs and change the land. Human beings change the land to build [[infrastructure|things humans need].[1]
