These South African frogs are burrowers, spending most of their time under dry, sandy ground and only visiting the surface once the area has been lavishly prepared with sumptuous rains.

And then that tiny mouth opens and a blood-curdling shriek arises from dark belly-depths unknown...
And the Beast did squeak.

that just absolutely made my day!!! too dang cute!
It's scarcely believable!
I came across this video on Tumblr a couple of days ago and I think I've watched it about twenty times already. Frogs are brilliant animals.
It's like a land pufferfish!
@Jedediah: Haha! You CAN'T watch it just once!
@Crunchy: If we knew more about Rain Frogs in the old days, perhaps pufferfish would be called Sea Rain Frogs?
that is the cutest thing i have ever seen! i want about six of them!
You could have an incredibly high pitched barbershop sextet!
So... That would mean the frogs would be performing in a barbershop?
Oh wow, a barbershop quartet of them would be ear splitting!
