Scientists Stunned By Blue Magnificent Tree Frog

July 17, 2024

Nature always has a way of surprising us, and a recent discovery in Western Australia is a testament to that.

The magnificent tree frog, typically known for its large size and olive to bright green hue, has shown its true colors—quite literally.

For the first time ever, scientists have found a magnificent tree frog that is bright blue.

This stunning amphibian was spotted in the Charnley River-Artesian Range Wildlife Sanctuary in the Kimberley region.

According to a statement from the Australian Wildlife Conservancy (AWC), this discovery is nothing short of extraordinary.

"It was very exciting. Magnificent tree frogs are already spectacular, but to see a blue one is a once-in-a-lifetime chance," said AWC field ecologist Jake Barker.

Scientists attribute the unusual coloring to a genetic mutation.
