I wonder though, because it's possible to hear directly through the bones of the skull. Perhaps their ears are underdeveloped but unnecessary for communication and they hear anyways. Have we hooked one up to check their brainwaves for stimulation to sound?

I love it’s tiny hand nub, Poor things. Evolution puts them through so much already, then makes them have one little finger like a bad ceramics project that fell apart in the kiln
I dunno, the motion of the landing looks to me like behavior adapted to compensate for lack of control--they may not have the awareness but they have also adapted to no longer need it. Hatching eggs straight into frogs without requiring a tadpole stage also grants advantages, while it's warning coloration has been put to double use for enabling communication. It seems that the only thing it's bad at is being a normal frog, but it is quite good at being itself.
My speculation is that the toadlets live on the ground full of litter so launching yourself into the air then dropping into some random pile of leaves motionless isn't particularly detrimental to survival, if not beneficial. Therefore the toadlets with weak inner ears (the cause of lackluster landing) are not selected against and are able to mate and produce offspring with equally weak inner ears.
Fun how the Toadlets are so small, they were given a diminutive name. In German the Squirrel and the Bunny also have a diminutive name "Eichhörnchen" and "Kaninchen" respectively. You'd may think that those name suggest there are larger animals called "Eichhorn" and "Kanin", but the diminutive here is more to "cute-ify" their names, because those animals are cute.
I heard that because the "ito" suffix indicate something is tiny in Spanish, the name mosquito must suggest that there are giant version of the insect.
i didn't know pumpkin toadlets existed before this video but i can now say i love every single one of them so much. yes they may get a C- in evolution but they get an A+ in my heart
Thank you so much for explaining the truth of evolutions “good enough” nature. People hear “survival of the fittest” and they interpret it as “only the best of the best deserve to live”
It's a beautiful theory but most of the time, it is indeed the fittest. Competition is usually high, and the case of those frogs is more like an exception. Even if an animal is bad at something (like the mentioned humans) - they are extremely good at something else, to compensate. Btw, producing ready-made frogs instead of eggs is a huge advantage. Maybe it allowed them to survive with no ears or whatever.
@@erynn9968 Cute idea, but opinions are not facts. The animal kingdom doesnt follow some Social Darwinism about "only the best survive". Anything that can live ling enough to reproduce is good enough. It's why cockroaches and flies, things that most people don't consider impressive, end up on every continent with no end in sight.
THIS! let's not forget how toxic this translates to a capitalist society. everyone is needed in the system/ecosystem and have their own roles! not everyone need to be ceos, leaders, top dough, or in this case, A+ rated predators 👍sometimes it's okay to be a C. surviving and doing your part is enough than to have a grandeur expectation of your standing and ability
In fact, there's a reason why their jumps are so catastrophic: they jump mainly to avoid danger, so they jump and play dead in mid-air. It's also why they don't get up immediately after landing - they play dead to avoid danger. Thanks for making a video about this frog, it's a fascinating frog!
So they're tiny toadlets. But they're bad at it so they're terrible tiny toadlets. They also don't have a lot of dexterity, so they are terrible teetering tiny toadlets. Unfortunately for predators, they're also poisonous. Making them terrible teetering tiny toxic toadlets. Fortunately for predators they warn them by being bright orange, making them terrible teetering tiny toxic tangerine toadlets.
Their jump is a nice allegory for how the usual day goes. After waking up you have the best intentions and are motiviated, but once the day started it is a guess how it ends. Sometimes everything works out and you land on your feet, and sometimes you corkscrew face first into the ground.
I feel like this frog is my spirit animal. It can breathe, poop and do the horizontal tango occasionally…and that’s about it. But it’s ok. I need to remember that if the pumpkin froglet is good enough…than so am I. Pretty inspirational actually.

I mean, they survive because they are toxic. They say that it’s weird they are still alive considering that they can’t land their jumps and can’t even hear each other’s mating calls, but then they mention off-handedly that they are highly toxic and that predators avoid them. That’s probably the primary reason they are still around!
@@OnlySlightyRadioactive Pumpkins are associated with fall, and carving faces into pumpkins is a Halloween tradition. These are frogs are called Pumpkin Toadlets
The frog when they jump be like: "I believe I can fly-" *"NOPE NO I DON'T"* Those pumpkin toadlets actually look similar to the golden mantella in Madagascar. I wished Mantellas were talked about more often. When people think of poisonous frogs, you automatically think of the poison dart frogs of Central and South America. But there is another type of frog outside of Latin America that has bright colors to warn predators of its poison, and gets their poison from their food, and that's where the Mantella comes in. In fact, the poison dart frogs are so famous, when the Mantellas were discovered in 1866, they were automatically placed in the Dendrobates genus. Didn't take until 1882 for them to be given their own genus, and eventually their own family Mantellidae.

It's funny how much evolution disproves itself with stupid examples like this.

It has acquired junk DNA from the Fall and will go extinct. By God's good graces it's running around still.
Such arrogance to blame evolution for bad knees and backs when it's mostly Western sedentary cultures that have that problem. Maybe we just don't get how precisely imperfect evolution is-a delicate balance of factors.
There is a whole family of frogs, Ascaphidae, that lack external ears. One theory is that they "hear" the mating call through vibrations in the ground.

If this frog wasn't created it wouldn't stand to survive// this frog has mutated from its original version enough that it is slowly dying, like many other species. It has acquired junk DNA from the Fall and will go extinct. By God's good graces it's running around still.
Such arrogance to blame evolution for bad knees and backs when it's mostly Western sedentary cultures that have that problem. Maybe we just don't get how precisely imperfect evolution is-a delicate balance of factors.
I got my pin earlier this week and immediately couldn’t wait for this. The pin’s so cute, too!
How they just stiffen up and torpedo through the air killed me, I love them so much
I now want this frog as a pet. It will be the only pet that will ever understand what I go through.
"Shouting love songs to no one." I can totally relate to this frog.
Ive known about these little dudes for less than 5 minutes and i already would die for them
OH MY GOD, I HAVE NEVER IN MY WHOLE LIFE LAUGHED SO HARD TO THE POINT IM *SOBBING* . THE WAY THEY JUMP, I CAN'T!
epic lolzers for the win
There is a whole family of frogs, Ascaphidae, that lack external ears. One theory is that they "hear" the mating call through vibrations in the ground.
2:25 It genuinely looks like some sadist got him drunk before recording that.
The pumpkin toadlet pins are long gone, but you can get a glittery pumpkin toadlet sticker right now! complexly.store/products/bizarre-beasts-sticker-pack-vol-4
it's okay, it has one thing it's not bad at and it is being adorable.
Came across this video with my boyfriend and we both saw the title and said “me” at the exact same time
We are now roleplaying mostly deaf frogs who jump weird
This helped my perfectionism. There are times when the details matter, but there are also times you just need to get ‘er done. Sometimes it’s okay to be okayish lol thank you, smol fren ❤
I WANT SEVERAL OF THEM
Losing my mind at their name being brachycephalus bc everything from their thoughtless round eyes to general incompetence at moving and making noises is exactly like my brachycephalic (rescue) Persian cat 🥹
I have really small ear canals. I am clumsy. I can relate to this little guy.
I saw the thumbnail and knew i needed this frog as a pet
The human is nature's one rogue A+ that the teacher never let them forget
my dude just Jumps and presses the Ragdoll button
I don't know if you take suggestions but an episode on green blooded skinks would be really cool! Honestly anything with reptiles haha
We actually talked about them a tiny bit in our icefish episode! ruclips.net/video/DtufV5JZLW4/видео.html
@@BizarreBeasts ah i totally forgot about that! Looking forward to more videos, there are so many crazy animals out there
