My favorites are the Poison Dart Frogs.
These little guys are packed with color!

Here's a Waxy Monkey Frog Phyllomedusa sauvagii basking in the warmth of a lamp.
These frogs like it HOT. They seal in moisture by giving themselves a rubdown with a waxy substance secreted through skin glands. Climbing to an exposed perch, they draw in their arms and legs and sleep in the sun. They awaken and hunt at night when the air temperature and the rate of water loss are lower.
