Andinobates claudiae is a frog. It lives in Panama. Scientists have seen it in only one place: Bocas del Toro.

Home

This frog lives on the ground in forests that are not high in the hills. People have seen this frog between 5 and 145 meters above sea level.

Young

The female frog lays eggs on the ground. When the eggs hatch, the adult frogs carry the tadpoles to water inside hollow plants.

Danger

Scientists say this frog is in big danger of dying out. Human beings cut down trees to make farms. Scientists think people might catch this frog to sell as a pet, but they do not know if they do it now.

One of the places this frog lives is a protected park: Bastimentos Island National Park.
