Over the millennia, amphibians both large and small have dominated the Earth. Today, there are over 5000 different species of frog inhabiting all corners of the globe, from the tropical jungles, and dark swamps, to the desert wastelands, and frozen tundra. A select few evolved some extreme and bizarre adaptations to survive. An extraordinary family that come in many weird forms, shapes and sizes. There is an army of giant Bull Frogs that lay dormant in their underground tombs, waiting for the first rains to rise from the earth and feed. This aggressive and carnivorous predator will consume nearly any animal they can fit in their huge mouths. There are the nocturnal predators that have no teeth, no tongue and no ears and use claws to tear apart their prey. The disfigured breeder who's young develops within her own skin. And the Hairy Frog, that actively breaks its own bones, which burst through its feet. From bone claws and glass skin to antifreeze and deadly poisons, we'll show you the jumpers, the climbers, the killers and high flyers. And hidden deep in the jungles of Central Africa, the Goliath Frog still lives today. It is one of the largest and rarest frogs to ever walk the Earth. These are Nature's Incredible Frogs.
