Question

Did you know? Glass frogs (Central and South America) have transparent undersides — you can see their heart, liver and eggs through the belly. During sleep they pack 90% of their red blood cells into their liver, becoming even more transparent — an "invisibility trick" against predators.

Glass frogs (Central and South America) have transparent undersides — you can see their heart, liver and eggs through the belly. During sleep they pack 90% of their red blood cells into their liver, becoming even more transparent — an "invisibility trick" against predators.

Glaskikkers (centraal en zuid Amerika) hebben transparante onderkanten — je kunt door hun buik hun hart, lever en eieren zien. Tijdens de slaap pakken ze 90% van hun rode bloedcellen op in hun lever, waardoor ze nóg transparanter worden — een "onzichtbaarheidstruc" tegen roofdieren.
