Incredible Animal of the Week


Posted by Hello
The Tomato Frog - Amazing.

When threatened, the tomato frog inflates its body. If the predator grabs the tomato frog in its mouth, the frog's skin secretes a thick, whitish substance that gums up the predator's teeth and mouth, causing the predator to release the frog to free up its mouth. The gummy substance clears out of predator's mouth after several days; it contains a toxin that occasionally causes allergic reactions in humans.

I saw the frog do this on Animal Planet and it was amazing. The white stuff is exactly like glue. The snake that tries to eat it goes away with it's mouth stuck shut for up to 2 days! More proof that there has to be a God. Nature is way too incredible for their not to be. Scientists should be the greatest theologians in the world.
