CRYSTAL/GLASS FROG
They are frogs of the amphibian family Centrolenidae .



GASTRIC BROODING FROG Rheobatrachus
Native to Queensland, Australia. This specie of frog swallows the egg after laying it and the egg remains in it's stomach till it hatches and comes out alive from its mother's mouth! Wonder how the mother's digestive juices is prevented from digesting the egg!!!



ICEFISH
Aptly named, this ice fish can literally become as cold as ice, according to the British Antarctic Survey scientists who described it on a recent expedition in the Southern Ocean. No red blood cells course through the veins of this fish: Instead, it has antifreeze.
