The Surinam Toad’s Wild Birth: Nature’s Cool Nursery – The Dreamer
In South American rainforests, this oddball has a mind-blowing adaptation. It’s one of nature’s most captivating evolution tales.
When mating, the female Surinam toad sticks her fertilized eggs into special slots in her back skin. As the embryos grow, they poke out small holes, turning her into a living nursery.
It’s like a sci-fi scene. Tiny toadlets pop out of these holes, all grown up and set to go solo.
