Meet the extraordinary Humayun's Night Frog (Nyctibatrachus humayuni), a male amphibian who takes his role as protector to new heights! With an air of confidence and determination, our hero stands tall on a plain black background, silhouetted against the soft glow of backlighting. Clinging onto a leaf with utmost care and precision, he guards a precious cluster of eggs like his life depends on it – because it does! This endangered species knows that every egg is vital for its survival. As we marvel at this incredible sight, let us not forget the significance behind this image.
