Fact
A fun fact about the red-eyed tree frog is that its vibrant red eyes, blue sides, and orange feet are a defense mechanism called startle coloration: when sleeping, it hides these bright colors, but if threatened, it flashes them open to momentarily stun predators, giving it time to escape into the green canopy.
