World’s Smallest Tetrapod
This morning I read on Ugly Overload about a new species of tiny salamander recently discovered in Costa Rica. At only one inch long, surely, I thought to myself, this must be the smallest tetrapod (four limbed vertebrate [this includes whales and birds]) in the world!
This led me on a brief internet search to find out if I was right. Turns out, there are several species of frog that are even teenier!!! The smallest tetrapod in the world is the Brazilian Gold Frog, Brachycephalus didactylus [wiki], only 9.8mm long!
Now you know, etc.
Stumble it!
