For the first time in history, scientists spotted the magnificent tree frog in a never-before-seen blue coloring
The magnificent tree frog just lived up to its name in a never-before-seen way: scientists spotted a bright blue-colored version of the frog, which is typically green.
The blue coloring is due to a genetic mutation that results in the frog missing the yellow pigment in its skin. And while this could potentially impact the amphibian’s survival — scientists believe the frog is at least a few years old.
The magnificent tree frog is already an incredibly rare species found exclusively in an Australian wildlife sanctuary, demonstrating the importance of these protected areas for wildlife conservation.
Why is this good news?Feats of nature like this frog are an awe-inspiring reminder of how spectacular the world around us really is — and that we should do all we can to protect, preserve, and care for it, whether the creatures that call it home are magnificent, or maybe a little less obviously so.

University students built a tiny home for a man who’d been houseless for two decades
As part of the university’s UrbanBuild program, Tulane students submitted a tiny home design that would eventually benefit someone in their community.
The winning design was chosen by a team of professional architects — and the students got to work building it. Then they learned who would eventually get to call it “home.”
The 440-square-foot tiny home’s permanent resident, Benjamin Henry had been previously experiencing homelessness for nearly two decades. Henry had at one point lived under an interstate in New Orleans and was in temporary housing for years.
It’s the smallest home the program has ever built but is already having a massive impact on Henry.
As one student said, “Good design and good architecture can be affordable and accessible to everyone. And it should be.”
