Jumping on the bandwagon: Two lazy tree frogs hop on to the back of a friend for a lift



These tree frogs are obviously enjoying each other's ribitting company - after hopping on one another's backs to get around.



Incredible close-up pictures of the trio show tree frogs Jabba, Freddo and Kermit enjoying an afternoon piled up on each other.



The three friends are just some of the 2000 animals on display at Wild Action, a private zoo in the Macedon Ranges, Victoria, Australia, owned by zoologist Chris Humfrey.

Mr Humfrey has owned the frogs for several years and they have formed a close bond.



But he admits that Jabba, aged 33, is a favourite of the trio after he found him on a family holiday when he was just five-years-old.

Mr Humfrey spotted the baby frog in a urinal in Coffs Harbour and picked him up to take him home.



He said: 'He was the first animal I ever had, and it started my interest.'

Mr Humfrey quickly built up his animal collection to include a blue-tongue lizard called Hector and a python named Bertha by the time he was 12.



Both the lizard and the snake are still part of his zoo, which travels the country entertaining and educating children about nature.
