 the Argentine Horned Frog It was one of these grumpy things that accidentally led me on my current path as a biologist and conservationist 23 years ago. Their chompy attitude still holds a warm place in my heart. We are hoping this little frog will grow strong and inspire others as they have me. #Frog #Frogs #Frogger #Froggy #FrogsOfInstagram #FrogLife #AmphibiousAF #AmphibianFound #FrogsNeedOurHelp via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs0vU_ygjkr/

This #RoundFrog is a hybrid cross of the #Anurophagus Ceratophrys cornuta and the far less particular C. cranwelli - the result is this beautiful and grouchy thing. #Frog #Frogs #Frogger #Froggy #FrogsOfInstagram #FrogLife #AmphibiousAF #AmphibianFound #FrogsNeedOurHelp via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BsyIlWyAJJo/

— What an amazing show, and I was honored to help out again. Keep your eyes peeled next season for #PoisonFrog creature power! I am so grateful that I could give my son an opportunity to contribute to his favorite TV show :) #Frog #Frogs #Frogger #Froggy #FrogsOfInstagram #PoisonFrogs #FrogLife #Aposematic #AmphibiousAF #AmphibianFound #FrogsNeedOurHelp #WildKratts #CreaturePower via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BswCQJRg2HN/

Holding this frog for a few seconds will coat your hand in noxious glue. Delightful. Can't get enough of these #Grouchy #RoundFrogs #Frog #Frogs #Frogger #Froggy #FrogsOfInstagram #FrogLife #Crypsis #Mimicry #AmphibiousAF #AmphibianFound #FrogsNeedOurHelp via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BsqXXPDA5b-/

If it's also a #RoundFrog like this one, then I just can't stand it. This baby #AfricanBullfrog has already bitten me once, and has doubled its size in a week. We are growing a group of these charmers for #CritterCamp this summer. #AmphibiousAF via Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/BsofCjZgSaj/
