Black Rain Frog
Tumblr media
AKA plain rain frog, brown short-headed frog, tsitsikamma frog, Breviceps fuscus
A little avocado...
Rain frogs can look a little silly, like little balls with arms, but they're also very interesting! They spend most of the day burrowed up in soil or leaves, and don't hatch as tadpoles - their babies are already frog-shaped, and called froglets!
Black rain frogs in particular have little inward-facing arms that make them better at burrowing! They're only found within a small region of South Africa, and can be up to 2 inches long.
They live in shrubland, preferably near sand they can burrow up in, and don't like living near open water. They only live their 6-inch-long tunnels at night, in order to hunt and mate. They can also inflate to try to scare off predators, getting up to 7 times as big!!

What's this? A rain frog (Breviceps macrops). Isn't it delightful to see its grumpy little face?
