this frog lives in rainforests where the trees are close together. it spends almost all its time high in the trees. it only comes down from the tree to look for mates and lay eggs. male orange-thighed frogs gather in groups in ponds. they call for a mate from branches or on the edge of the water. their call is a long "aaa-rk". they mate with females after a heavy rainfall. their eggs are brown and the female can lay from 800 to 1600 eggs. the orange-thighed frog's tadpole are similar to the red-eyed tree frogs.
