Condoto Stubfoot Toad, Utria National Park, Colombia We saw it first in Bahia Solano, and again here in Utria National Park. I only have this one photo of this observation, as it fled away soon after. Still, it shows their most beautiful part, the artful patterns on the back. This individual was much larger than our first observation.

      Yes it is, it just keeps surprising us year after year. This place was really incredible, untouched. And if amphibians do well, they say it's a good sign of the health of the place. Posted 5 years ago

        There are a few endemic species (including one named after Oxapampa, where I spent all of 2020), but they definitely seem even more poorly known than their northern relatives! Posted 29 days ago
