KUNG-FU FROG IMITATES KARATE KID

Balanced on one leg, a frog assumes the crane kick martial arts stance made famous in the movie The Karate Kid. The amphibious kung-fu fighter, pictured in East Java, Indonesia, is ready to deliver a devastating kick, similar to the one actor Ralph Macchio executed in the 1984 cult classic. The Reinwardt's flying frog was photographed by Indonesian photographer Monica Anantyowati after she spotted the frog practicing its moves in a field in Jember, a city in eastern East Java.
