Artist's notes:

wallace's flying frog thumb Perhaps this is my best known frog - if I could call it such. The drawing is based on a photo by my friend Pete Carmichael, who is one of the most talented and friendly gents I know. These frogs are simply amazing and I hope to one day travel to the Asian rainforest to see them in action.

This frog is arboreal with specialized toepads that allow them to adhere to vertical surfaces. In addition to toepads flying frogs have huge, fully webbed hands and feet, also skin along the side of the body.
