The purple frog is an unusual amphibian that is native to Western Ghats in India. It looks different and is purple. This species is subterranean and only comes out during breeding season in the pre-monsoon months of April and May. These frogs spend most of their life underground, emerging only for reproduction. Their diet consists of ants and termites. When you see it you would not think of frogs.

spending almost the whole year underground and only popping up for two months to breed is kinda nuts... imo that's the most low key part of this frog, i would never get tired of looking at it

The body (sans purple) looks like a frog, but that head doesn’t look like it belongs to a frog at all. How funny!

I have seen dark colored frogs but never seen a purple frog before.
