Frogs
The rainforests and similar humid habitats of the region are perfect for frogs. Most are active at night and these forests reverberate to their nocturnal chorus. Some tree frogs are brightly coloured jewels, other species are sublimely camouflaged; there are even frogs that can glide from the canopy to the forest floor!
