A genus of large South American frogs with horn-like projections above their eyes, known for being sit-and-wait predators that eat other frogs.
From Greek 'keras' (horn) + 'ophrys' (eyebrow). Named for the distinctive horn-like supraorbital crests that give these frogs their characteristic fierce appearance.
Ceratophrys frogs, called horned frogs, have a look of pure reptilian rage and actually live up to it—they're aggressive cannibals that will eat other frogs their own size and have a bite that can break skin!
