Move over Freddo, the world has a new chocolate frog thanks in part to an Aussie scientist who braved the fetid rainforest swamps of New Guinea to catch some.
Steve Richards, from the South Australian Museum, distinctly remembers the day he first saw one in the flesh.

But what he also managed to do was disturb an overhanging nest of giant hornets. I had to run flat out, trying to get away from these things, which was very difficult because of the water and knee-high mud, the frog specialist told AAP.
