Morogoro Tree Toad
Endemic to the tropical forests and grasslands of Tanzania, the Morogoro Tree toad—Nectophrynoides viviparus—has large glands on its body near the eyes and the limbs. These glands can be a wide range of colors including orange, grey, green, red and white. The color of the glands usually contrasts to the rest of the frog.The eggs hatch while inside the female and they are released as small, but fully formed toads. This type of gestation is rare amongst amphibians.
