Another one-up in the deadly game of Cutest Animal Ever brinksmanship. Via New Scientist:

This tree frog has a long protuberance on its nose. It points upwards when the male is calling, but deflates and points downwards when he is less active.

The frog is thought to be a member of the Litoria genus, also known as Australasian tree frogs. It joins around 150 other known species.
