Cochranella midas is a small tree frog from the glass frog family. It lives in the tropical forests of South America and has transparent skin on its belly, through which internal organs are visible.
Cochranella midas stands out with its transparent belly skin from most other frogs. It is important for nature because it eats insects and serves as food for snakes and birds in tropical forests.
Legendary longevity: over 100 years. Galapagos tortoises, Greenland sharks, ocean quahogs celebrate with family once every 4 years
