Panamanian Golden Frog

The Panamanian Golden Frog (Atelopus zeteki), also known as Cerro Campana stub foot toad and other names, is a species of toad endemic to Panama. The streams along the high slopes of the Cordilleran cloud forests in west-central Panama are home to Panamanian golden frogs. Despite being listed as severely endangered by the IUCN, it may have gone extinct in the wild as of 2007. In an effort to save the species, individuals have been gathered for breeding in captivity.

One of Panama's most attractive frogs is the golden frog, which serves as the country's emblem. Light yellow-green to bright gold is the spectrum of skin tone, and some individuals have black blotches on their backs and legs. Males are normally between 35 and 48 millimeters long and weigh 3 to 12 grams, while females typically range from 45 to 63 millimeters long and 4 to 15 grams in weight.
