Rapid, nasally noises, a cross between a quack and a honk, came out of his phone speaker as he played a video of a male Pine Barrens Tree Frog calling in search of a mate.
A real-life frog answered in the trees behind Fischer, who is a 2020 Environmental Science graduate now in the Professional Science Master鈥檚 program and on 91视频鈥檚 campus.
