Two new species of frog have been discovered and they are super tiny. Known as Paedophryne dekot and Paedophryne verrucosa, both species are smaller than a penny! These are the tiniest frogs in the world and they live in Papua New Guinea.

When these frogs have reached adulthood, they are only 8 to 9 millimeters long. Since their little fingers and toes are too small to help them climb, these frogs just hang out on the forest floor and eat little bugs like mites.

What would you name a tiny frog species?
