Great Photos as usual mart!

I'll have to get my photos sorted of Chester Zoo and stick em up, not to vote on who has the best though.

It is a Horned frog but not a fantasy - Fantasy horned frogs are a hybrid between this one and a cranwells horned frog.

This one is a Ceratophrys cornuta (just referred to as Cornuta by hobbyists) They won't let them export them to the pet trade if I remember right - so it was good to see one in Chester

I tried to get the same photo but my lens just wouldn't let me in the low light. just got a new f1.8 wish I had of has it then.

Soz smart arse- but it did say it was a Fantasy on the tank at Chester. Are you saying the zoologists got it wrong?
