Frog Extinction

The rate of amphibians vanishing is terrifying. A recent study estimates that current rates of extinction are 211 times the background extinction rate for amphibians. Discover six frogs which have disappeared during recent time: Atelopus longirostris, Bufo baxteri, Rheobatrachus silu, Philautus travancoricus, Craugastor milesi, and Philautus adspersus.
