Tomato Frogs are any of the three species of genus Dyscophus: D. antongilii, D. insularis, D. guineti. Dyscophus is the only genus in subfamily Dyscophinae.

They are endemic to Madagascar (which is off the coast of Africa).

Adult Tomato Frogs are larger than a persons fist and males usually grow to about 2 and a half inches and females usually grow to about 3-4 inches.

The frogs habitat is being deforested but they can apparently adapt to living in cultivated areas and found in gardens and eucalyptus plantations.

They breed during rainy season in stagnant or very slow-moving water.

Dyscophus antongilii are in danger due to deforestation and over-collecting for pet trade (poaching), they are protected under CITES (convention on international trade in endangered species) and are illegal in trade.

In short: chonky frog bois
