hey @markscherz what kind of beast is this and why does it have bell bottoms

This is Cruziohyla craspedopus, and basically it has evolved to look like a leaf and not like a frog when sitting still during the day (they are nocturnal). Apparently bellbottoms break up your outline and make it harder for predators to recognise you as a tasty morsel.
