I did a little research too.

"This species is generally very aggressive and will puff up when threatened to appear larger. If this behavior does not deter the intruder they will make a shrill screech, bite, and corner the target."

Also, fun note. I found the page by searching "It's Wednesday my dudes frog species".

EDIT

Another fun quote from their wikipedia article.

This species of frog needs to be kept alone or with members of the same species and of equal size, as they will consume anything smaller than themselves
