איבער אויף אַרטהראָפּאָדאַ, יונגערמאַן ספס בלאָגגער מיכאל באַק שערד אַ בילד פון זיין פעלד באַדי, פּלוגג די גרין בוים זשאַבע. My first thought was of a similar tree frog that haunted welcomed me everywhere I went in Santa Rosa National Park, קאָסטאַ ריקאַ. יבעריק צו זאָגן, Costa Rica instills a sudden habit of double checking everything you are about to do. This species is known as the milk frog (Phrynohyas venulosa) for their copious amounts of milky white toxic secretions. One of the first stories Dan Janzen told me while while I was with him at Santa Rosa was about this species – and accidentally rubbing his eye after holding it. Thankfully the blindness and burning was only temporary.
