adolescent mutant ninja amphibians!

FINALLY FINISHED THE RLLY ROUGH DESIGNS 4 MY AU!!!

the main difference is that instead of turtles, theyre frogs! lol :] i'm still figuring out their characterization as well as a plot, but im really happy. for anyone curious ill put the species under the cut!

Leo is a red eyed tree frog (a. callidryas)! they’re iconic, recognizable, fitting for the leader and face man

Donnie is bruno’s casque headed frog (n. brunoi)! they are one of the two known VENOMOUS frogs! they have little spikes in their skull

Raph is an oriental fire bellied toad (b. orientalis)! they’re unable to extend their tongues like other frogs, and the bombina genus as a whole has a unique defense mechanism called unkenreflex!

Mikey is a harlequin poison frog (o. histrionica)! tadpoles are obligate egg eaters and this diet makes them really hard to raise in captivity
