Photographer left with frog in throat 

HANDSOME, a 20-year-old tree frog gave photographer Aldwyn Altuney more than she bargained for at a media launch.

Handsome is Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary's Year of the Frog ambassador and was appearing at the launch of Inkspot Printers' super new printing press.

As soon as Aldwyn had taken her photo, Handsome leapt at her, the first time he had ever done such a thing, according to his keeper Natalie Hill.

"I obviously made a good impression on him and was rather honoured he decided to jump on me," said Aldwyn.

Inkspot Printers have provided the Sanctuary with free frog education packs for Gold Coast schools and Handsome's visit was his way of saying thanks.

Frogs species are in unprecedented decline and the kits deliver key messages about saving them and their habitat.
