EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this incredible snapshot captured by D. Parer & E. Parer-Cook, we witness the ingenious tactics of a water-holding frog as it seeks refuge from the scorching arid conditions of Central Australia. This amphibian superhero has found solace in its underground burrow, cleverly protecting itself from the relentless drought. With its webbed feet and sleek body, this little warrior is well-equipped to navigate through the unforgiving terrain. As it patiently waits for rain to quench its thirst, our water-holding friend showcases true resilience and adaptability. Living life on the edge (literally!), this Australian native demonstrates that survival can be both practical and delicious! Yes, you heard it right - these resourceful frogs have an edible secret hidden beneath their slimy skin. They store precious reserves of water within their bodies, making them self-sufficient even during times of extreme scarcity. Amphibians like our burrowing buddy are truly remarkable creatures that remind us of nature's extraordinary ability to find solutions in challenging environments. So next time you're feeling parched or facing a tough situation, channel your inner water-holding frog and remember: with determination and a little creativity, anything is possible!
