OMG NEVER EXPECTED A FROG TO BE THIS VIBRANT! #Shorts

​Dive into the vibrant world of the Red-Eyed Tree Frog (Agalychnis callidryas), one of the rainforest's most stunning and recognizable residents! This charismatic amphibian, native to the tropical lowlands of Central America, is a master of camouflage by day, clinging to the underside of leaves with its emerald green skin perfectly blending into the canopy.
​But when danger threatens, its true colors flash! Its incredible startle coloration defense mechanism kicks in: those huge, bulging scarlet eyes snap open, instantly revealing its brilliant blue-and-yellow striped flanks and orange feet. This sudden explosion of color momentarily disorients or shocks a predator, giving the frog a precious second to spring away to safety.
​A strictly nocturnal carnivore, the Red-Eyed Tree Frog spends its nights hunting for insects like moths, crickets, and flies in the humid jungle environment. These arboreal acrobats rarely touch the ground, using their super-sticky toe pads to navigate the trees and leaves. They lay their eggs on the underside of leaves hanging over water, so when the tadpoles hatch, they simply drop into the pond below to continue their amazing life cycle.
​Witness the beauty and fascinating adaptations of this rainforest icon!
