El Yunque holds an intriguing phenomenon where certain species of frogs seemingly fall from the sky during heavy rainfall. This curious event as explained by GloboTrek is when Puerto Rico’s indigenous Coquí frog climbs up trees during times of high humidity, but often jumps back down to avoid prey they are met with at the top.
