Not only does the frog defend the eggs, but it lets the wasps know exactly what it thinks of them. 3:04

[@samulityyska2269]

The fact that the male frogs risk their own lives against overwhelming odds to guard their offspring is some next-level dedication. They're truly world-class dads!🐸👏 Also, it's fascinating that nature has engineered not one or two but three safety measures to increase the tadpoles' chances of survival: 1. Huge numbers. 2. The male's camouflaged back that serves as a distraction against predators. 3. The tadpoles' ability to drop out of harm's way into the river below.

[@Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism]

You forgot one, probably the first; camouflage. They blend in with the green leaves. This works I bet 9 times out of 10 in the first place and for the majority, nothing ever sees them.

[@MN-gi4xy]

Perfectly summarised.. Mother Nature is indeed the master architect

@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8 Amen, I believe in Jesus Christ. God is good and He is patient with all of us, so let's keep praying for the lost and let's show them Christ's love as you are doing now. The Lord is not slow in keeping His promise, as some understand slowness. Instead He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. -2 Peter 3: 9 Jesus is coming soon, God bless you.

LOVE IT! Only yesterday, I found a green Tree Frog similar to this one in size, on the underside of a big leaf in my garden. I was absolutely thrilled. Frogs are apparently a sign of GOOD LUCK and PROSPERITY. 👍🙏😍

I don’t even hear David Attenborough anymore that’s just what nature sounds like when it’s narrated

Emotionally charged! Who knew I would be rooting for a wee frog 8AM in the morning. The music and cinematography was perfect. Such tense moments for the male frog and I'm not even a father!! Bless all God's creatures ❤️

What an amazing defense mechanism. I didn't know frogs could do that.

He uhhh... just kicked his legs???

Fight wasps is scary enough as a human. I can't imagine how terrifying they must be when they're as big as your whole dang torso! Fantastic cinematography on this.

[@twinflowerfioretta]

Incredibly well filmed with more suspense then many crime films, and with the best narration voice it is great ! Father frog is a Rambo & Superstar, he protects his "kids/brood"" heroically ! ✌💚! 💚

[@McQueen1217]

I don't too much care for frogs, but THIS ONE here made me say damn that's a cool dad! That first kick had me laughing so hard 🤣🤣

[@terramater]

Fascinating! We also got on camera wasps trying to break into a bee hive, and even though they are much bigger than the bees, it didn't look easy for them...

[@elpirata5468]

it truly is a jungle out there for us all bravo to this brave dad

Over the top video, as usual. Others have tried, but nobody does it better.

[@Sea-cucumber1151]

That is amazing, didn’t know wasps eat meat nor that frogs lay eggs out of water. Love the frog flick.

[@SpencerWilliamsIV]

I have seen wasps eat caterpillars, but never tadpoles.

[@I.B.69]

Loved it, felt like it was a movie! I ❤ Nature.

That video name should have read frog mercilessly does nothing while eggs are attacked and eaten. Lol.

[@DavidMcGuizz]

I never knew there was such a variety of of squishes and wet slap sounds in the world, the Foley artists really outdid themselves here

The frogs response to wasp seems like the response some people give when they feel a bug crawling over them.
