The Cooloola sedge frog or Cooloola tree frog (Litoria cooloolensis) is a species of frog in the family Pelodryadidae. It is endemic to Australia. Its natural habitats are swamps, freshwater lakes, intermittent freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, and coastal freshwater lagoons. It is threatened by habitat loss. Cooloola Tree Frogs only live in Australia and their lack of distribution adds to their endangerment. They mostly feed on bugs in their area; flies, spiders, moths, etc. Their green skin helps camouflage them because of their very green and wet habitat.
