a small arboreal toad species in a dynamic pose mounted on a small diorama of curling jungle leaves.
With strong lithe limbs and large elongated body, the gomitoad leaps from branch to branch in search of camouflaged leaf insects, such as the burberry beetle. Living a rather fearless existence for a toad, a brightly colored body warns predators of their toxin-laden skin, while they aggressively guard their favored trees from rivals with their horned head. The gomitoad has evolved to live in the canopy and far from bodies of water like most amphibians, keeping its body moist in dew water collected on leaves, when desperate, in times of drought it will dig into the leaf litter, taking the risk of falling prey to less toxin-sensitive mold worms.
