Red-Eyed Tree Frog Mini Mini Puzzle (100 Pc)

These iconic rainforest amphibians sleep by day stuck to leaf bottoms with their eyes closed and body markings covered. 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.

Their neon-green bodies may play a similar role in thwarting predators. Many of the animals that eat red-eyed tree frogs are nocturnal hunters that use keen eyesight to find prey. The shocking colors of this frog may over-stimulate a predator's eyes, creating a confusing ghost image that remains behind as the frog jumps away.

They are found in tropical lowlands from southern Mexico, throughout Central America, and in northern South America. These nocturnal carnivores hide in the rainforest canopy and ambush crickets, flies, and moths with their long, sticky tongues.
