Whoa. Awesome pics and info OP! Thanks for sharing it I'm going to Ecuador to study spanish more in-depth (it's my major) in the fall semester. It will be awesome if I come across any of these (especially the transparent frog).
PRETTY sure it refers to the size of the viper rather than it's target :lol

I'm pretty sure that the transparent frog aren't a new discovery. Lungless amphibians that breathe through their skin have also been known about for a while.
I was thinking about photoshopping the mini salamander and pencil to be behind a burning city, miles high, with people running from them, but all pictures of burning cities I could find were those of actual real-life catastrophies with dead people, so it didn't feel good doing it.

Different country, but I came across one of those glass frogs while studying tropical bio in Costa Rica. Just be prepared to do a lot of night hikes out in the field if you want to find some sweet amphibians...I wouldn't count on any jumping into a classroom.
On a related note, I also caught a red-eyed tree frog (see below), which aren't quite as cool as glass frogs, but still pretty crazy looking. Ok, I'm done being a nerd now.
