Vibrant and colorful, the red equatorial frog is a striking sight in tropical rainforests. Its scarlet skin is a warning signal that warns predators of its toxicity—a perfect example of defensive adaptation in nature.
Surprisingly, although very small, this frog secretes powerful substances that make it formidable despite its fragile appearance. Its diet consists mainly of ants, moths, and small insects, some of which contribute to its toxicity. Like its colorful cousins, it plays an essential role in the ecosystem by regulating invertebrate populations.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the red equatorial frog: smooth skin, vibrant color, and realistic attitude. An ideal model to enrich a collection of wild animals, invent exotic stories, or educate children about the incredible diversity of tropical amphibians.
