The Smallest Frog In The World

The smallest frog in the world is the Monte Iberia Eleuth (Eleutherodactylus iberia). It was first discovered in 1996 on Mount Iberia, from which the animal gets its name, and exists in only two small regions of Cuba. Much remains unknown about this small creature.

How is this the smallest? I used to catch tiny frogs as a kid, and they were half the size of this one. Somebody needs to double check the research.

Maybe the frogs you caught were young ones. These are adult animals.
