The Red-eyed Tree Frog is a small-sized tree frog. It reaches lengths of about 3 inches. Most animals that prey on it (some bats, snakes, and birds) rely on their sight for hunting. The bright colors of the frog throw off the predator by leaving a ghost image in the predator's visual field. This gives the frog time to hide. Red-eyed tree frogs are not poisonous and rely on camouflage to protect them. They inhabit rainforests from southern Mexico, through Central America, and into Northern Colombia; they are often found near rivers or ponds. Their habitat is threatened by degradation and pollution. 24" x 30" Original Acrylic Painting 2008 on Box Canvas. For Sale by Artist @ www.theHOELstudio.com
