[QUOTE="Martyz, post: 508817, member: 14320"] Fossilon the frog looks amazing. I didnt think that fossils could retain the pigments in skin as the organic material is replaced by minerals during fossilisation. It could be possible that the mummified remains of a burrowing frog have become one with actual fossils. Possibly the Warty Waterholding Frog ( Cyclorana verrucosa ). It depends on where you found it. I think that one needs to make a visit to a museum. [/QUOTE]
