The '''Bhupathy's Purple Frog''' (''Nasikabatrachus bupathi'') is a purple frog discovered in 2017, found in the Western Ghats of Tamil Nadu, India. It belongs to the family [[Sooglossidae]] and the order [[Anura]] (frogs and toads).<br />
<br />
== Description ==<br />
The Bhupathy's Purple Frog is an [[amphibian]]. Like all frogs and toads, it is a cold-blooded animal. It breathes air and can also breathe through its skin when in water. Adults have no tail.<br />
<br />
== Where it lives ==<br />
This species is found in [[South Asia]]. It lives in natural habitats such as forests, wetlands, and grasslands. The exact places where it lives depend on local conditions like rainfall, temperature, and the type of plants growing there.<br />
<br />
== Behaviour ==<br />
Like most frogs, the Bhupathy's Purple Frog is active at certain times of day or night. It eats small animals such as [[insect]]s, worms, and other invertebrates. It reproduces by laying [[egg]]s in or near water, and its young go through a [[tadpole]] stage before becoming adult frogs.<br />
<br />
== Conservation ==<br />
Like many amphibians in the Western Ghats, this species may be threatened by habitat loss and climate change. Scientists and governments work to protect amphibians because they are important indicators of ecosystem health.<br />
