The goliath frog (Conraua goliath), otherwise known commonly as the giant slippery frog and the goliath bullfrog, is a species of frog in the family Conrauidae. The goliath frog is the largest living frog. [3] [4] Specimens can reach up to about 35 centimetres (14 in) in snout–vent length and 3.3 kilograms (7.3 lb) in weight. [5]
The mountain chicken is one of the largest frogs in the world, the largest in its family Leptodactylidae and the largest frog native to the Caribbean. It can reach 1 kg (2.2 lb) in weight and up to 22 cm (8.7 in) in snout–to–vent length, although a more typical adult size is 17–18 cm (6.7–7.1 in).
Megalictis was the largest purely terrestrial mustelid [168] (although Enhydriodon had recently been mentioned as the largest mustelid that also happens to be a terrestrial predator [163]). Similar in size to the jaguar , Megalictis ferox had even wider skull, almost as wide as of the black bear . [ 168 ]
“It's a really big tree frog. They can get three times the size of our next largest native tree frog, which is the barking tree frog.” A Cuban tree frog explored in Lake Worth, Florida in 2010.

[8] Cuban tree frogs are mostly gray, brown, or green, with young frogs having more green coloration than adults. These frogs have rough, warty skin with blotchy or mottled patterning. [9]
The males weigh up to 1.4 kg (3.1 lb) and grow to 24.5 cm (9.6 in) in snout–to–vent length. Females are half the size of males, which is unusual, considering that most female amphibians are (generally) larger than males, to help the amplexus.
The white-lipped tree frog reaches 11–14 cm (4.3–5.5 in) in length. [5] Females are larger than males, and have thicker skin in correlation with the difference in body size. [6] Its dorsal surface is usually bright green, although the colour changes depending on the temperature and background, and can be brown. The ventral surface is off ...
