How to train your Beetle (Flying frog version) |
Well it looks like Disney, Pixar and DreamWorks Animation are not only changing and inspiring the lives of young kids and adults but wildlife animals as well with amazing movies like Toy Story and how to train your dragon. Talking of cowboys and riding flying creatures a reinwardt flying frog took on the challenge of flying a huge beetle the cowboy style as it flew around on the beetle while the local photographer Hendy Mp captured the adventure of the flying frog atop a black beetle near his house in Sambas, Kalimantan Barat in Indonesia. The green and orange cowboy frog is called the reinwardt's flying frog and is a native to Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand and is classed as a near threatened species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)
Despite being nearly extinct the flying frog seems to be enjoying his life riding around on other insects and thanks to local photographer Hendy Mp we have come to witness the beautiful adventure of the little frog.

And finally came the moment when the daring frog went flying with the beetle as he screamed Yee-haw! just like a cowboy flying in the midair for about five minutes and even put his front leg in the air just like a cowboy would do while riding a bull which made it look like a cowboy frog riding a beetle having fun of his life in a little wildlife rodeo while the beetle was happy to fly with someone on top and make their wish of flying come true as the frog navigated midair like a cowboy pilot riding a gentle bull beetle. After riding for 5 minutes the reinwardt flying frog jumped off the beetle and hopped back to the trees to tell it's fellow frogs about his adventures of flying and how befitting the name flying frog fits him, may be the frog will even switch to internet to check on his photos published in this article and start the trend of riding beetles and frogboy rodeos. :D
How do Flying and Gliding Frogs Fly
These reinwardt's flying frogs are commonly known as the black webbed tree frog or the green flying frog that have long toes with strong webbing between them which enables these animals to slow down their fall to a glide and thus referred to as flying frogs while they lay their eggs in aerial foam nests which upon hatching in the form of tadpoles drop in to the water under the nest and complete their development there.
