Product description and measurements
Leptopelis uluguruensis, known as the Uluguru tree frog, is a species of amphibian endemic to the Uluguru Mountains, located in Tanzania. This frog lives in tropical mountain forests, where high humidity and temperate temperatures create an ideal environment for its development. Its body is medium-sized, with a length ranging from 3 to 5 centimeters. The coloration of Leptopelis uluguruensis varies between green and brown tones, allowing it to camouflage itself among the leaves and vegetation of the trees. This ability to mimic is essential for its survival, as it helps it avoid predators.

One of the most distinctive features of this frog is its large eyes, which provide it with excellent night vision. Leptopelis uluguruensis is a species with mainly nocturnal habits, which means that it becomes active at nightfall to hunt insects and small invertebrates that constitute its main diet. Its limbs are long and equipped with adhesive discs on its fingers, allowing it to easily climb tree branches, its main habitat.

The reproductive behavior of this species is also characteristic. During the mating season, males emit vocalizations from low branches near bodies of water, with the aim of attracting females. After fertilization, females deposit their eggs on the ground, near ponds or streams, where the tadpoles hatch and complete their development in the water.

Despite its specialized adaptations, Leptopelis uluguruensis faces significant threats due to the loss of its natural habitat. Deforestation and the expansion of human activities in the Uluguru Mountains have considerably reduced the forested areas where this species thrives, putting it at risk of population decline. As a result, the protection of these forests and the conservation of their ecosystems is crucial to ensure the long-term survival of this endemic frog.

    Collector's item ; Hyper-realistic replica, highly detailed and with a high degree of scientific precision.

    Made to scale, prototyped in resin and with a scenic base in most of the models offered. If you like miniatures, both for collecting and for painting, we offer you a wide variety of scale replicas; All of them related to dinosaurs, extinct prehistoric fauna and current fauna.

    So if you love dinosaurs and animals as much as we do, this is your favorite store to collect and paint them :)

    We are authorized distributors of all the replicas and figures we offer. We use 3D printers with 8K - 14K resolution, and high-quality resins with additives to improve hardness and flexibility, thus offering replicas of impeccable quality.

    Different scales will be used to make the replicas (depending on the size of the species), although we are open to making other suggested scales upon request as long as they fit in our printing trays, for which you will have to contact us via email and request the required size.

    Replicas are supplied with the option of airbrush priming in dark grey. If you require another colour, please let us know which one you prefer in the box with special instructions for the seller. Without priming, we do not guarantee that the resin will accept paint.
    We also offer the option of choosing a professionally painted replica, which is agreed upon throughout its development with the painter, through a private chat available.

    Information about the models

    The poses of the models aim to represent each character in the most scientifically viable way, thus revealing the life and customs of prehistoric and modern fauna.

    Each character has its own personality and develops in different life scenarios; birth, adolescence and play, hunting, feeding, fighting, courtship, death and many other scenes from their daily life, always from the creative perspective of their designers.

    Handmade

    All orders are individually prepared on the cutter for subsequent prototyping, obtaining a resin part that will require post-processing by manual and ultrasonic cleaning, support removal, ultraviolet curing, labeling and packaging.

    We are authorized distributors

    We offer both our own physical replicas and those that have been modeled by many of the best 3D designers, in order to offer you the greatest possible variety.
