The wellbeing of human population depends on the ecosystem of earth. Amphibians from the ancient time represents a major part in the global diversity and play important role for the benefit of society worldwide. The aim of the present study was to investigate the comparative hematological study of Indian bullfrog (Hoplobatrachus tigerinus) from wetland and a common Indian toad (Duttaphrynus melanostictus) from terrestrial environment. In this study we have procured 10 sexually mature and disease-free Indian bullfrog (9.93±0.07 cm total length, 59.5±1.94 g weight) and 10 common Indian toad (8.26±0.26 cm total length, 78.6±1.36 g weight). The RBC and WBC count were found to be increased in frog than toad. Variation in RBC morphology which reveals the anemic condition in frog than that of toad. The study suggested that the environmental conditions have significant impact on status of frog and toad.
