In October 2024, conservationists from the Zoological Society of London, the NGO Ranita de Darwin & other partners rescued 53 southern Darwin’s frogs from the forests of Tantauco Park, Chile. They collected the frogs before they could be affected by the chytrid fungus, a deadly infectious disease.

A total of 86 Darwin’s frogs are now being housed at London Zoo to keep them safe from a deadly infectious disease that has affected more than 500 species of amphibians worldwide. In October 2024,…

Did a small study of the Darwin's frog (Rhinoderma darwinii) yesterday to cool down 🐸 I don't usually draw amphibians so it was a nice change to learn forgs

Several sketchy drawings of a funny looking Darwin's Frog. It is very round and has a pointed nose tip. Text is displayed on the page alongside each sketch: "Most green individuals are brooding males" , "Looks like leaf litter" , "The nose is actually just skin" , Male carries 5-8 tadpoles in his vocal sac" , Huge color varieties" , "Thumbnail sized" , "Fat Leaf of a frog"

Darwin's frog (Rhinoderma darwinii) has a unique brooding method. When the embryos begin to move in the eggs, the male ingests them and keeps them in his vocal sac for about 6 weeks until metamorphosis. The male is able to eat while carrying the tadpoles. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darwin'...

It's been an exciting week following the announcement of the Rhinoderma darwinii rescue operation from Tantauco Park to the London Zoo, part of the Zoological Society of London (ZSL). This vital initiative underscores the importance of international collaboration in safeguarding Darwin's frog.
