But are they different in care..color...size
I thought the White's Tree Frog came from Australia...So why are White's Tree Frogs and Australian White,s Tree Frogs differnet prices.
Are the more expensive Australians imported?
And if I wanted to order one...what is the original White's Tree Frog.

I own two Aussies. If I am not mistaken, Australia closed its borders to the export of wild anomals about a decade ago. Sure, there are still smugglers, but buying an Aussie increases your odds of getting a captive-bread frog. Pet stores like to lie about the CB status.

As far as colours go, Indonieasn WTFs tend to be darker than Australian. I prefer Australian colors. I'll post a picture of mine when her was 7 weeks old. The color has not changed, though he does go brownish-grey at night.

Care is exactly the same, though Indoneisans prefer it slightly cooler, though, then again, so do northern australians.

Hope this helps!
