The Chiricahua leopard frog (''Rana chiricahuensis''〔Pauly, G. B., et al. (2009). (Taxonomic freedom and the role of official lists of species names. ) ''Herpetologica'' 65(2), 115–28.〕 is a species of frog in the family Ranidae, the true frogs. It is native to Mexico and Arizona and New Mexico in the United States. Its natural habitats are temperate forests, rivers, intermittent rivers, swamps, freshwater lakes, intermittent freshwater lakes, freshwater marshes, intermittent freshwater marshes, freshwater springs, ponds, and open excavations. It is threatened by habitat loss and chytrid fungus to such an extent that it has been eliminated from 80% of its former habitat. The Phoenix Zoo, Arizona's Department of Game and Fish, and the USFWS are trying to mitigate threats through captive breeding and reintroduction efforts.〔(Phoenix Zoo marks restoration of 10,000th frog to the wild ). National Geographic (September 1, 2010). 〕 ==Phylogeny== A 2011 genetic analysis study provided evidence that the northwestern Mogollon Rim population of the ''R. chiricahuensis'' are indistinguishable from specimens of the extinct Vegas Valley leopard frog (''Rana fisheri'').〔Hekkala, E. R., et al. (2011). (Resurrecting an extinct species: archival DNA, taxonomy, and conservation of the Vegas Valley leopard frog. ) ''Conservation Genetics'' 12(5), 1379-85.〕
