The Parrot Frog is a frog-like superspecies that inhabits the Hollow Earth in the 2024 Legendary Pictures film Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

Name

The Parrot Frog's name was first revealed in an announcement for Monogram International bag clips.[4] It is so named for its resemblance to a frog and ability to mimic sounds like a parrot. Monarch gives them the cryptozoological classification Anouras Psittacus.[1] This is presumably derived from Anoures, an outdated spelling of Anura, the taxonomic order for frogs, and psittacus, the Latin word for parrot.

Design

The Parrot Frog resembles a frog with tan coloration and pinkish fish-like fins sprouting out of its back and forelimbs. Its feet resemble those of tree frogs with individual flat circular padded fingers, while its head and eye placement resemble that of mudskippers. The Parrot Frog possesses four fangs in its mouth. When it croaks, its vocal sac becomes red and veiny, and grows far larger than the rest of its body.

History

Monsterverse

Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire

As Kong fought Doug over a Wart Dog carcass, he was distracted by a sound similar to his own roars. He searched for the source, only to discover a Parrot Frog lurking behind a ridge. The Parrot Frog then inflated itself with an inhale before expelling Kong's exact roar.

Abilities

Mimicry

The Parrot Frog was able to mimic the roars of Kong. By inflating its vocal sac, which extended from its lower jaw along much of its underside, it could amplify its imitated roars so they could carry over significant distances.
