Did you know? The Marañón poison frog (Excidobates mysteriosus) is often found in or near bromeliad flowers. The bromeliads offer shelter and provide it with water, which pools in its petals! The frog also uses bromeliads as a place to lay its eggs. Known for its unique call, which has been described as a rattle-like buzz, this species lives in a small region in northwestern Peru, where it inhabits montane forests. The roughly 1-in- (2.5-cm-) long frog is endangered and faces threats posed by habitat destruction and smuggling for the pet trade.

River Frog (Lithobates heckscheri), family Ranidae, found in the SE United States

The tadpoles of this species are capable of over-wintering through up to 2 winters, and overwintering tadpoles get rather large, growing up to 97 mm (3.8 in). 

The above individual was handled under permit for a scientific study, and was released after capture.

Turtle Frog (Myobtrachus gouldii), family Myobatrachidae, Western Australia

These burrowing frogs dig forward, like a turtle, and not backwards into the soil, like most burrowing frogs.

After pairing up, a couple descends into a burrow, where they later mate, and lay eggs. The offspring go through the larval stage in the eggs (not having a free swimming tadpole stage).

They feed on termites.
