"FROGGIE WENT-A COURTIN'.."
Another freaky frog on the verge of extinction due to the absence of streams in the region following rampant ecological breakdown. Found exclusively in the jungles western ghats, these frogs dance (and smack away other males too!!!) to attract the female frogs who have trouble hearing mating croaks over the sound of water. There are other dancing frogs in Central America and Southeast Asia, but the Indian family, known by the scientific name Micrixalidae, evolved separately about 85 million years ago.
The "Indian Frog-Hop" dance move doing its last tango in 21st century.
Mankind is never really kind enough to let everyone dance.....
