These species of frogs belong to the amphibian family of Centrolenidae.
The skin of this interesting frog is lime green, but some species in the family
have transparent skin on their abdomen.
The structure of the skin allows the
light to pass through it.
Because of that, we can see all of their internal
organs, including the gastrointestinal tract, the liver and the heart.
The name
of these species of frogs comes from their abdominal skin. Glass frogs are
generally small (3-7 cm).
They are known for their act of eating their offspring.
Glass frogs are native to South America and they live in the rain forests on
this continent. Look at the following video about glass frogs and see how the
heart of a frog works.
