Abstract
Specifically, this paper addresses the following questions: 1. Is background color distributed nonrandomly (e.g. color could be correlated with size)? 2. Do frogs choose matching substrates under manipulated laboratory conditions? In particular, do green frogs behave differently than brown ones? 3. Do frogs change color from green to brown in response to their background?
