Darwin's Amazing Animals S2021E09 - Hold on Tight! -- Japanese Stream Toad

The male Japanese stream frog sports some surprising sumo and wrestling moves. But watch this Prince Charming's way with the ladies.

The long river route is full of fast-flowing rocky turns and waterfalls. No matter the hazard, he will not let go. But a new threat awaits: the bevy of anxious bachelors who don't accept no for an answer!
