The Weirdest Frog In The World

clipped from: skirmisher.org   

Discovered only about four years ago in India, the Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis is a “chubby, seven-centimeter-long, purple amphibian with a pointy snout.” It was found hopping around in the Western Ghats, a range of hills in western India [Wikipedia entry here].


Its head appears too small for its body and it looks more like a squat, grumpy blob than a living creature.


While this purple frog reminds us of a shiny lump of ice cream, our resident starving bums agree it would be a succulent main course for what will be called “Roasted Purple Frog Delight.” The legs look particularly tasty.
