It’s tragic that the “extinct” toad lost its natural habitat on the side of a waterfall in Tanzania because they built a hydroelectric dam. It used to live in the spray of the waterfall. Now it can only survive in a lab where they spray it with water for 22 hours a day. It’s extinct in the wild in Tanzania. It’s interesting that this toad has a live birth. It doesn’t have a tadpole stage. We have to be more careful about how we affect the environment.
This is a very interesting article, and I find it strange how these amphibians can give live birth. I wonder how the baby frogs eat, because amphibians don't suckle their young.

For some reason, I was unable to view this video. It just went to something about spiders in green light.
