  • A highly territorial male reticulated glass frog (Hyalinobatrachium valerioi) assumes the classic guard posture, facing the eggs with one hand on the clutch, to protect them from wasps and other predators. The white dot pattern on his skin is thought to mimic the egg mass, with the intent of drawing attention away from the vulnerable clutch and towards the male who is defending them. Selva Verde Rainforest Reserve, Costa Rica.

  • A pair of tiny California tree frogs (Pseudacris cadaverine), camouflaged against the granite rocks in an alcove. Almost invisible, they are the perfect coloration for hiding in sand and rock. Altadena, California.

  • Great Horned Owl (Bubo virginianus). Newton is an imprinted owl who has lived at the ORC since 2012. The beautiful glow in Newtons eyes is caused by the light cast on his nictitating membrane. This transparent third eyelid is found in birds, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and mammals, and is used for protection and to moisten the eye while maintaining vision.
