Duttaphrynus melanostictus

Forget about supermen for a moment and now let's get to know the mysterious hero who is more silent but has the same greatness. He is duttaphrynus melanostictus or better known as the house frog from the bufonidae family. He doesn't need a mask or a robe when doing his actions, he just uses his sticky tongue to hunt down annoying insects. He is indeed known as the most silent figure, but when he reacts many insects are afraid of him. Especially mosquitoes and cockroaches, they are both very afraid of this mysterious hero.

The frog I met has unique characteristics, big eyes, muscular legs and its skin looks rough and bumpy. Most likely the bumps are a place to store poison glands that are used to protect themselves from enemies. In addition to having bumps as a powerful weapon to protect themselves, the color they have also helps them camouflage perfectly, especially in sandy soil and dry leaves.

For its habitat, this frog spends more time on land such as gardens, yards, parks and so on. And it is more active at night. During the day, frogs will look for places to hide such as moist soil, rocks, dry leaves and so on. But most frogs will be in moist places during the day. Maybe to keep their skin stable and not dry.
