Australian frog species flashes genitals to repel predators
A new frog species discovered in Australia flashes its brightly coloured genitalia as the last line of defence against potential predators. Found in coastal swampy regions, the frog has been named Mahony's Toadlet and is the size of an adult thumb. The amphibian's primary defence mechanism is blending into its environment, a technique common in small lizards and frogs.
