How to identify Red-eyed Tree Frog
Red-eyed Tree Frogs immediately attract attention with their bright red eyes. Their body is a striking green, while the sides and legs are patterned with branching blue and yellow markings. The toes are a strong orange colour, which is especially noticeable when they are climbing.
At a length of three to eight centimetres and with a slender, elegant body, the Red-eyed Tree Frog is relatively small, but its vivid colours make it particularly eye-catching. Its smooth skin reflects the light in the humid rainforest and clearly sets it apart from other frog species.
