Bushveld Rain Frog
Although the bushveld rain frog has a grumpy face but it has some impressive adaptation skills. The male frog can stick itself to the female with the help of some secretions that act like a glue. No external force can make them apart. Only the female frog can release a solvent that can eradicate the glued effect. The frog can also blow itself like a balloon in order to get away from its predators.
