Those cranial crests are incredible! I’ve never seen southern toads with such pronounced crests. That’s awesome!

Very special❣️ Where was this? would you post a link to your observation?

Edit: oh, I missed that you said the location in your post, sorry.

This region lies in Tran-Himalayan ranges of the western Himalayas. Despite being a human dominated region, snow leopards are thriving here.

Here is photo log of my trip to this region.

Is there a new thread for voting?

If it works the way it did last year, the mods will choose finalists, and put them into a voting thread. Since entries are closed, I’m surprised this thread isn’t.

Ahh, Nudibranchia! Fascinating in every way, shape or form.
