Potentially invasive Cuban treefrogs found in plants shipped to Oregon
/Two non-native and potentially invasive Cuban treefrogs (Osteopilus septentrionalis) were found late last month hitchhiking on nursery plants sold at one location in Oregon and another purchased online. The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife (ODFW) advises that nursery plant retailers and customers inspect all products.
Do not release any found animals into the wild and report them immediately to the Oregon Invasive Species Hotline at 1-866-468-2337 or online at: https://oregoninvasiveshotline.org/reports/create.
