The Mount Iberia Frog

Cuba is also the habitat of the world's smallest frog. Despite its diminutive size, this frog compensates with a potent venom.

The Mt. Iberia frog (Eleutherodactylus Iberia) from Cuba holds the Guinness World Record for the tiniest frog, measuring just 10 millimeters in body length. Research suggests that these tiny frogs adapted their small size to feed on mites that larger frogs might overlook. These miniature frogs naturally secrete substances on their skin.
