Check this guy out. Nasikabatrachus sahyadrensis, otherwise known as the Purple Frog or Pignose Frog was only discovered in 2003. It is endangered, and limited to a very small geographic region of SW India. It is one of the many animals commonly referred to as "living fossils" by taxonomists. A rather dramatic way to say it's a very unique creature.
Enjoy purple animals whenever they can be found, even if you have to stretch a bit to really see that hue,
