Tiny Fanged Frogs Unearthed in Indonesian Jungle

Researchers have discovered the world's smallest fanged frog species, Limnonectes phyllofolia, in Indonesia's Sulawesi Island. These tiny frogs have bony "fangs" that they use for territorial battles and hunting. The frogs were found nesting on leaves and mossy boulders several feet above the ground, with male frogs guarding the clutches of eggs. The unique reproductive behaviors of these frogs may be related to their smaller fangs. The discovery highlights the importance of conserving these unique tropical habitats.
