Wallace’s flying frogs employ a unique camouflage strategy: masquerading as bird droppings. Researchers discovered that young froglets, painted to resemble fecal matter with red and white splotches, were attacked half as often by predators as those with solid colors. This "fecal camo" helps these young frogs survive to adulthood, allowing them to grow into the green, web-footed adults found in rainforest canopies.

This fascinating research was highlighted by the Center for Biological Diversity in [Endangered Earth Online](https://www.biologicaldiversity.org/publications/earthonline/endangered-earth-online-no1231.html) and a [Scientific American report](https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/this-flying-frog-spends-its-youth-masquerading-as-poop/). The Center, a 501c3 nonprofit, works to protect diverse wild species through science, law, and creative media, ensuring a future where the wild thrives.
