Small but striking, the blue equatorial frog is one of the most striking amphibians in the rainforests. Its vibrant color isn't just for aesthetics; it warns predators of its toxicity—a perfect example of defensive adaptation.
Surprisingly, despite its small size, this frog secretes a powerful poison, enough to deter larger animals. Its diet, rich in ants and other small insects, contributes to the production of this substance. Like its multicolored cousins, it plays an essential role in the balance of the forest by regulating insect populations.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the blue equatorial frog: finely textured skin, intense hue and realistic posture. An ideal model to enrich a collection of wild animals, invent tropical stories or educate children about the incredible adaptations of amphibians.
