    Default Pipa parva

    Here are some photos taken at the zoo I worked at. Although, this species' reproductive strategy is quite similar to Pipa pipa (the more common Suriname toad), there is one major difference. When the eggs of Pipa parva, P. myersi, and P. carvalhoi hatch, tadpoles emerge. P. pipa give birth to fully formed toadlets. I don't have a very good digital camera, so they are quite fuzzy.
