Theloderma gordoni occurs in montane forests at elevations of 600–1,500 m (2,000–4,900 ft) above sea level, often in karst areas. Breeding takes place in water-filled tree holes and karst depressions where the tadpoles develop. It is threatened by habitat loss. It is also collected for the pet trade. It occurs in the Doi Suthep–Pui National Park in Thailand and in a number of protected areas in Vietnam.[1]
