Meet the Breviceps macrops, or as he's commonly known, the desert rain frog. He looks sort of like a frog that's been inflated with a tire pump, and this one's got a lot on his mind. The desert rain frog is a species of frog that lives in Namibia and South Africa. Even stranger than its shape is the fact that these frogs have a transparent underbelly, which means its organs can be seen from the outside. 


This desert rain frog's tiny squeak sounds ferocious, but it's actually a war cry. Isn't this the cutest angry sound you've ever heard?
