Glass frogs are tiny amphibians found in the jungles of South America. They live in trees and only come down from the branches for the breeding season. They'll fiercely protect their eggs from threats, sometimes kicking away animals like wasps with their back feet! Glass frogs have forward facing eyes, and translucent skin - hence the name glass frog. • Scientific Name: Family - Centrolenidae • Range: South America • Size: average 1 inch (2.54cm) in length • Diet: small arthropods, possibly algae, even their own eggs! • Life Span: 5+ years • ✨ Animal Fact Files Patreon Supporters get early access to videos, get their video requests moved to the top of our request list, and more! ✨ • 👉 / animalfactfiles • You can learn more on: • Twitter - / animalfactfiles • Facebook - / animalfactfiles • --- • Image and Video Credits: • I'mage Conservation - • Ranas de Cristal - Esmeraldas Vivas (... • Thore Noernberg - • Glass Frog - Drake Bay, Peninsula de... ; • Glass Frog - Drake Bay, Peninsula de... • stemcellsareawesome - • Teratohyla pulverata calling in the r... • • Brian Gratwicke - https://www.flickr.com/photos/briangr... https://www.flickr.com/photos/briangr... https://flickr.com/photos/19731486@N0... • bgv23 - https://www.flickr.com/photos/7491012... • Charles Sharp - https://www.flickr.com/photos/9388236... • Peter Michelle S - https://www.flickr.com/photos/pjs42/4... • Javier Abalos - https://www.flickr.com/photos/globulo... • • Tnarg 12345 - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fi... • Mauricio Rivera Correa - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Co... • JurriaanH - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Gl... • • emerlee - https://www.inaturalist.org/photos/59... • juan_carlos_caicedo_hernandez - https://www.inaturalist.org/photos/55... • Yorlene Osiris O.
