Discovered by Charles Darwin in 1834, the tiny Southern Darwin's Frogs are well-known for their unusual parenting strategy.
As part of a conservation initiative, 33 endangered Darwin’s froglets have been born in the UK. The remote forests of southern Chile are home to the Southern Darwin’s Frog . Discovered by Charles Darwin in 1834, the tiny Southern Darwin’s Frogs are well-known for their unusual parenting strategy. The male frog is responsible for caring for the developing offspring. These frogs carry the tadpoles in their vocal sac until they are ready to emerge as froglets from their mouths.
The conservation effort was successful, as 33 froglets were born. This captive population will safeguard the species while conservationists work to restore their natural habitat. Darwin’s frogs have a peculiar reproductive cycle. Females lay eggs on the forest floor, which are then fertilized and collected by the males. The males carry the developing tadpoles until they develop into froglets and are “born.
