Freiberg's forest toadlet (Engystomops freibergi) is a frog. It lives in Ecuador.
This frog lives in rainforests that have never been cut down. It is awake at night. People see it on the dead leaves on the ground. Scientists have seen it between 10 and 1,000 m (33 and 3,281 ft) above sea level. Scientists have seen the frog in protected places.
Scientists have seen the frogs in protected places Tambopata National Reserve, Manu National Park, Floresta Nacional do Trairão, and Reserva Extrativista Riozinho da Liberdade.
These frogs have young in ponds and streams where the water moves slowly. They put the eggs in nests made out of bubbles. The tadpoles swim in the water.
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. In some places, some of the frogs may be in danger when people change the places where the frogs live by cutting down trees to make farms and places for animals to eat grass.
