Its muscular body and strong hind legs are well suited for traveling through the forests and waterways that form its habitat. **History** Scientists believe the ancestors of the Mountain Chicken reached Dominica and Montserrat from South America many millions of years ago. After becoming established on these isolated volcanic islands, the species evolved into the large frog known today. Throughout history, it has remained closely connected to the wildlife and traditions of both Caribbean islands. **Ordering** If you have questions about buying silver online, BGASC customer service is available at 888-992-4272.
