The Asian Horned Frog is known for its camouflage that allows them to blend in with the leaf litter on the ground of the tropical rain forests. The camouflage serves two purposes. It helps the frog not be seen by predators,as the frogs are pretty slow and suck at escaping. It also helps the frogs hide while they sit and wait for prey to approach them.
