A couple of Perez's frogs (Pelophylax perezi) Due to their remote location, the Canary Islands are difficult to reach for amphibians. There are only three species to be found, and one of them only exists in the south of Gran Canaria. Prerez's frog, also known as the Iberian waterfrog, was introduced in the islands by conquistadors probably in the 15th century. It is found on all islands except El Hierro.
