紅眼樹蛙 (Agalychnis callidryas) 是一種樹棲性兩棲動物,生活在中美洲熱帶雨林地區。雌蛙的體型比雄蛙大,但無論雌雄都有相同特徵。顧名思義,紅眼樹蛙有著一雙鮮紅的眼睛,瞳孔為黑色,背部和四肢上部呈亮綠色,所以如果紅眼樹蛙蜷曲身體並閉上眼睛,牠們就能偽裝成周遭樹葉融入環境。紅眼樹蛙體側和四肢內側呈藍色,黃色條紋分布其中,並有著橙色腳趾和白色的下腹部。

Animal Facts
It is believed that the red eyes of this frog evolved as a startle display; the frog is well camouflaged with eyes closed, but if under threat it can open its eyes to shock a potential predator.
Red-eyed tree frogs have extremely sticky feet due to their surface being made up of an uneven microscopic hexagon pattern. This allows them to crawl upside down and stick to most surfaces, even when carrying the weight of another frog.
Red-eyed tree frog eggs can detect vibrations from nearby predators and may hatch early to escape harm.
Despite their bright colouration that may be perceived as a warning to predators, red-eyed tree frogs are not poisonous.
Red-eyed tree frog tadpoles can survive for up to 20 hours out of water.
