Meet the Brachycephalus Pitanga, a tiny frog with a big personality! This pint-sized guy is basically the ‚orange M&M‘ of the amphibian world of Brazil‘s Atlantic Rainforest in São Paulo state. Their bright orange skin is an aposematic signal showing off his toxicity. Which is party due to the teterotoxin they contain.
Funfact: We found them close to fruits/berries on the floor that looked exactly the same like them. The same orange, red pattern. Coincidence?
