The Panamanian golden frog is a critically endangered toad. They are called frogs because of their frog-like proportions, but they are classified as a true toad. They are distinctively yellow with dark spots along their head, back and legs. Found only in Panama, it inhabits wetlands and tropical forests. Their vibrant coloration serves as a warning of toxicity to predators. These frogs are threatened by habitat loss due to development and a devastating Chytrid fungus epidemic that affects amphibians across the Americas.
