Red Eyed Green Tree Frog
- Found in tropical lowlands from southern Mexico, throughout Central America, and in northern South America.
- These frogs sleep by day stuck to leaf-bottoms with their eyes closed and body markings covered, to blend in with the foliage
- When disturbed, they flash their bulging red eyes and reveal their huge, webbed orange feet and bright blue-and-yellow flanks. This technique, called startle coloration, may give a bird or snake pause, offering a precious instant for the frog to spring to safety
