In At Timberline, a Nature Guide to the Mountains of the Northeast is this illustration of a Mink Frog, with the description:
"Mink Frog, Rana septentrionalis. Length 2 to 3 inches, resembles green frog but tends to have darker spots and lacks
cross bands on hind legs. Voice a rather deep and rapid 'cut, cut, cut, cut.' Frequent at low to medium elevations, especially
at edges of ponds and where lily pads are plentiful. When handled it emits a musky odor resembling that of a mink."
