A fact from Albanian water frog appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 26 September 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that populations of the endangered Albanian water frog(pictured) are declining due to over-collection for the food industry and pet trade?
The Albanian water frog (Pelophylax shqipericus) is a species of true frog in the family Ranidae. It is native to Albania and Montenegro, where it lives in aquatic environments. The frogs are medium-sized. Males sometimes bear a distinctive bright green stripe down the length of the backbone, but otherwise are green to light brown in overall colouring with large black or dark brown spots. Females are olive green or light brown in colour and also bear brown or black large spots. The species is endangered and known populations are currently in decline.Photograph: Benny Trapp
