Limosa harlequin frogs are little amphibians from Central America no bigger than the size of a small coin. Sadly, they are on the endangered species list. Over time, water pollution and cutting down trees has greatly decreased their habitat. The frogs no longer have enough space to find food or safety from other animals.

Another problem is disease. A serious sickness called chytrid fungus affects the frogs’ skin. The skin is a very important part of a frog’s body because it takes in water and oxygen through its skin. Many frogs have died because of this fungus.

Thankfully, conservationists are working hard to help the frogs. They have created warmer habitats for them, after discovering that higher body temperatures keep the chytrid fungus from spreading. One scientist, Jorge Guerrel, built small underwater caves for the female frogs to lay eggs in safety. Several conservation groups have also started a breeding program, where they try to get the frogs to mate and lay eggs.

The future now looks a little brighter for the limosa harlequin frogs as well as for other endangered frogs. Conservationists are learning how to help these special amphibians so that they will remain a part of the world’s ecosystem.
