The South American giant monkey frog, found in Argentina, Brazil, Bolivia, and Paraguay, survives in hot, dry tree habitats by producing a waxy secretion that prevents dehydration. They're called "monkey frogs" because they walk in trees, not hop.

Meet Keke, @nattattackss Waxy Monkey Tree Frog (Phyllomedusa sauvagii) 🐸. This unique species lives high in the drier treetops of the Gran Chaco, spanning Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, and Bolivia. To cope with the dry climate, they secrete a special wax from their skin glands and spread it over their body like natural lotion, helping them lock in precious moisture and prevent them from drying out. How cool is that?! • #reptiliatus #pet #frog #animal #reel #instagram #viral #cute #frogsofinstagr
