Unbelievable Superpower Revealed in the Smallest African Dwarf Frog Ever Seen In a groundbreaking scientific discovery, researchers have revealed the existence of an uncanny superpower hidden in one of nature’s tiniest marvels — the smallest African dwarf frog ever documented. Caught in a remote rainforest survey, this remarkably diminutive amphibian is now in the spotlight for an extraordinary biological ability that blurs the line between reality and science fiction. Meet the World’s Tiniest Frog with a Hidden Superpower The African dwarf frog, Physalaemus petersi (a species under intense study due to its minuscule size—often just a few centimeters in length)—has just dropped surprising news: it possesses a previously unknown superpower. Scientists observed that this frog can survive extreme dehydration far beyond any known amphibian, entering a cryptobiotic state reminiscent of the resin beetle’s "water imbibition" phenomenon but on an even more astonishing scale.
