Don't Stand Out
Frogs are prey for many animals such as snakes, raccoons, and even other frogs! How do they stay safe and not become someone’s dinner? Some frogs use camouflage to blend into their surroundings. A green frog hiding in green leaves is difficult for a predator to see. Some frog species are noted for being able to change their color and pattern. Gray tree frogs are known to go from green to gray or brown in a matter of seconds. Barking tree frogs not only change their colors, but can display dark spots or a unicolor skin to help camouflage.
