Rare Yellow Frogs Spotted in Jhansi: Indian Bullfrogs Who Change Colour To Attract Female Frogs for Mating Seen Near Pond, Video Surfaces

In a rare and fascinating occurrence, yellow frogs have been spotted in the Punawali Kala area of Raksa in Uttar Pradesh's Jhansi, following heavy rains that began on Saturday morning. These Indian Bullfrogs, belonging to the species Barbourula variegata, are known for their bright yellow skin, which contains a poisonous substance that deters predators. Local residents have noted that these frogs were absent during the last monsoon season, making their sudden appearance this year particularly noteworthy. The sighting of these frogs is traditionally considered a positive omen for the monsoon. The unusual amphibians have quickly become a local attraction, with many people flocking to the area to take photographs and learn more about them. Barbourula variegata is typically found in India, China, and parts of Southeast Asia, adding to the intrigue surrounding their presence in Jhansi. Rare Albino Fawn Spotted at Katarniaghat Wildlife Sanctuary in Uttar Pradesh's Bahraich District (See Pic).
