Are you looking for one of the most unique amphibians in the world? We have the incredible waxy monkey tree frog for sale at very low prices. Waxy monkey tree frogs have the scientific name Phyllomedusa sauvagii. They come from South America. This includes Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina.

Waxy Monkey Tree Frogs are charming yet somewhat chubby, tree-dwelling amphibians. These frogs truly live up to their name of Monkey Tree Frogs. Unlike their jumping relatives, they choose to use their long, thin legs to walk slowly among the trees, like a monkey.

They are also one of the few tree frogs with opposable thumbs. This allows them to use their monkey-like “hands” to hold onto thin branches as they move through their habitat.
