Spring Peeper in terrarium.
September 28, 2015. Today was a big day for us: my daughter Pippa released the two Spring Peepers she has raised from tadpoles. It was a beautiful fall day, warm and sunny. We took them to a patch of woods and opened the terrarium and watched them hop out and away! Pippa decided to let them go so they could hibernate: they burrow down in the leaf litter and freeze solid. In spring they will thaw out and be good as new. We look forward to walking by that spot in spring and hearing the sound of peepers peeping. – Jim
