<p>
In India, a newly discovered color-changing frog has been worshipped as a god. Reji Kumar, the person who found it, keeps the frog in a glass jar at his home where hundreds of people come to see it every day.
</p>
<p>
Apart from the obvious biological findings this hopping lava lamp can provide, it also gives an additional insight as to how religions and spiritual groups&nbsp;can emerge.&nbsp;I&nbsp;don&#8217;t blame them either. Who needs color-saturating hallucinogens for spiritual transcendence when you have a kaleidoscopic animal?
</p>
<p>
I say this new&nbsp;rainbow frog will become the new symbol for racial equality, just as long as it doesn&#8217;t croak (which is actually a concern).
</p>

<blockquote cite="http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,22049,25604485-5012895,00.html"><p><em>The frog was a dazzling white colour when Reji, who is from Thiruvananthapuram, the capital of Kerala, in south India, first spotted it.</p>
<p>Then it changed to yellow and had gone grey by the time he got it home.</p>
<p>“By night the frog was dark yellow, and then it became transparent so you could see its internal organs,&#8221; Reji, a life worker, reportedly said.</em></p>
