A new current book dedicated on insects of the usa. and 10hard covered books about atlas of all animals of the usa and some books about the ocean with friggin stunning hd quality photos----WANT that camera. But thanks. that is one of my favorite frogs. I also like the strawberry dartfrog. There are some other frogs that are similar to the paradox frog. Bullfrogs are similar but not quite the same in that charasteristic. See as a tadpole Id say a bullfrog (mind guessing) tadpole is around 5inches or so (tail and everything), as it grows it actually shrinks into a juvenile froglet which is about an inch at most. Within the summer it may gain as much as another inch or so. So its similar to the paradox frog but not the same. Paradox frog tadpoles are large and when they adult they just continue shrinking. Its somewhat weird because how can a small frog produce such a large tadpole is anyones guess. Its like a small woman producing a huge fat baby. Humans are somewhat similar to paradox frogs. As babies we are small. As we get older we grow. But then after a certain age we start to shrink. By the age of 80 we NORMALLY loose 2 feet of height or so. My granny is 4.5 feet. She used to be 5.6feet tall. My grand dad is 4.7 feet tall. He used to be 7.4feet tall. Currently Iam at his youths prime height. But I guess people are somewhat different as well. I think we are of the very few species of animal thats size growth is different. Sometimes I wonder if other ethnic backgrounds are other morph of the same species. Because theres ussually a pattern over ethnicites(i kinda have being studying people in general). Argh Iam ranting again. XD Sorry anywho. I forgot what Iw as about to say. Hopefully you get what I was going to say.
