Otherwise uncommonly known as the Beady Eyed Green Challenge-stripe Frog.
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
Life is like a jar of Jalapeño peppers ... what you do today, might burn your ass tomorrow.
Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Is a great place to ask this sort of question, it also helps map where species occur

Re: what frog is this?
If i look at the rear legs, it must be a jump-frog with a coustom paint job, maybe it's used for drag racing.

Jip, die streep is altyd daar.Rianc wrote:Is draai strepie normaal op sy rug af? Nog nooit gesien nie, sal interresant wees.
Die kleur verskil wel van streek tot streek, waar die padda meer groen of bruin kan wees. Dit veroorsaak dat die streep meer of minder duidelik is.
