Whatever you do, do NOT provoke the Surinam horned frog [Ceratophrys cornuta]! These South American natives are quite fierce and have been known to attack anything that moves, including members of their own species. These frogs reach a maximum length of 7.9 inches from snout to rump, and have extraordinarily wide mouths that allow them to consume a variety of prey, including insects, lizards, mice, other frogs, and any other creature they can shove between their jaws. This individual was found in the Santa Cruz Forest Reserve in Loreto, Peru. On photographing this frog, Kenny Wray commented that “during my attempts to photograph this individual, he repeatedly would gape and lunge upward with surprising agility and accuracy at my fingers and camera lens.”
