Behavior
Excellent climbers the Cuban tree frogs will typically sleep above ground during the day. During the night Cuban tree frogs forage for insects in sources of artificial light. Indiscriminate predators they will eat anything they can overpower and fits into their mouth, including: snails, spiders, insects, other frogs (even other Cuban tree frogs), snakes, lizards, small crustaceans, and hatchling birds in their nest. Their foraging will occasionally take them up utility poles where they can cause short-circuits of utility switches, causing costly power outages.
