'He is indeed the best of animals,' replied Rat, 'So simple, so good-natured, and so affectionate. Perhaps he's not very clever - we can't all be geniuses, and it may be that he is both boastful and conceited. But he has got some great qualities, has Toady.'

A Frog Prince

The Prince Charles stream tree frog(Hyloscirtus princecharlesi) was recently named after Prince Charles. Amphibian Ark decided to name the frog after Prince Charles because of his rainforests project, which raises awareness of deforestation and climate change. This rare frog was found in 2008 by Luis A. Coloma in the Cotacachi-Cayapas National Park in Ecuador. It is in the family hylidae(tree frogs) and the genus hyloscritus, which contains 28 types of frogs.
