Frog (Eleutherodactylus sp.) sitting on a leaf. The Eleutherodactylus genus of frogs is found in Central and South America. They are adapted to the absence of pools of standing water by not having a swimming tadpole stage in their life cycles. Instead, the eggs are laid on land and hatch out as fully-developed froglets. Photographed in cloud forest on the Amazonian slopes of the Andes mountains, near Cosanga in Ecuador.
