This Frog Species Can Secrete Wax To Stop It From Drying In Sun

The amphibian spends most of its life in the treetops, and it produces a waxy substance that covers its skin with a protective layer.

A fascinating video of a frog has surfaced on the internet. The video shows a South American giant monkey frog rubbing itself with its forelimbs and hindlimbs to secrete body wax.
