The western chorus frog eats small inverebrates. They live in marshes, meadows, wet and swampy woodlands. Rocky River and Mill Stream Run reservations offer the best opportunities to find this species; rare on east side of Cleveland. Listen for the western chorus on warm nights in early Spring. Its call sounds like a long 'creeeeeeeeeek` it souds like a fingernail running along the small end of a fine-toothed comb.
