Pumpkin toadlets can't land their jumps or hear their own love songs, but they still get by somehow.

@noone3216 Год назад

@@idkwhatnametouse4392 ummmm.... nah, afraid not. The shape 'square' is defined as having sides of equal length. As soon as the sides aren't equal, it's not a square. While the right-angles of a rectangle are sometimes called "square angles", the shape is never classified as "a square". Thumbs on the other hand (no pun intended) are classified as one of your five fingers. So it is accurate and correct to call thumbs 'fingers', but the other four fingers are never called 'thumbs', because thumbs are an opposable digit.

@pentalarclikesit822 Год назад

So they're tiny toadlets. But they're bad at it so they're terrible tiny toadlets. They also don't have a lot of dexterity, so they are terrible teetering tiny toadlets. Unfortunately for predators, they're also poisonous. Making them terrible teetering tiny toxic toadlets. Fortunately for predators they warn them by being bright orange, making them terrible teetering tiny toxic tangerine toadlets.

@erynn9968 Год назад

It's a beautiful theory but most of the time, it is indeed the fittest. Competition is usually high, and the case of those frogs is more like an exception. Even if an animal is bad at something (like the mentioned humans) - they are extremely good at something else, to compensate. Btw, producing ready-made frogs instead of eggs is a huge advantage. Maybe it allowed them to survive with no ears or whatever.

@trustytrest Год назад

@@erynn9968 Cute idea, but opinions are not facts. The animal kingdom doesnt follow some Social Darwinism about "only the best survive".

@Nick-sx8yg Год назад

I dunno, the motion of the landing looks to me like behavior adapted to compensate for lack of control--they may not have the awareness but they have also adapted to no longer need it. Hatching eggs straight into frogs without requiring a tadpole stage also grants advantages, while it's warning coloration has been put to double use for enabling communication. It seems that the only thing it's bad at is being a normal frog, but it is quite good at being itself.

@OrdinaryEXP Год назад

My speculation is that the toadlets live on the ground full of litter so launching yourself into the air then dropping into some random pile of leaves motionless isn't particularly detrimental to survival, if not beneficial. Therefore the toadlets with weak inner ears (the cause of lackluster landing) are not selected against and are able to mate and produce offspring with equally weak inner ears.

@erdmannelchen8829 Год назад

Fun how the Toadlets are so small, they were given a diminutive name. In German the Squirrel and the Bunny also have a diminutive name "Eichhörnchen" and "Kaninchen" respectively. You'd may think that those name suggest there are larger animals called "Eichhorn" and "Kanin", but the diminutive here is more to "cute-ify" their names, because those animals are cute.

Their jump is a nice allegory for how the usual day goes. After waking up you have the best intentions and are motiviated, but once the day started it is a guess how it ends. Sometimes everything works out and you land on your feet, and sometimes you corkscrew face first into the ground.

The frog when they jump be like: "I believe I can fly-" *"NOPE NO I DON'T"* Those pumpkin toadlets actually look similar to the golden mantella in Madagascar. I wished Mantellas were talked about more often. When people think of poisonous frogs, you automatically think of the poison dart frogs of Central and South America. But there is another type of frog outside of Latin America that has bright colors to warn predators of its poison, and gets their poison from their food, and that's where the Mantella comes in. In fact, the poison dart frogs are so famous, when the Mantellas were discovered in 1866, they were automatically placed in the Dendrobates genus. Didn't take until 1882 for them to be given their own genus, and eventually their own family Mantellidae.

There is a whole family of frogs, Ascaphidae, that lack external ears. One theory is that they "hear" the mating call through vibrations in the ground.

I now want this frog as a pet. It will be the only pet that will ever understand what I go through.

They are incredibly adorable. They truly get around well enough.

When it jumps, it looks like someone threw a plastic frog toy.
