Cerro de la muerte
Well, last week end I went on a short trip to "Cerro de la Muerte" and although I was expecting to find some salamanders, I didn't. Instead I found this small frogs. They are called Craugastor podiciferus. This frogs undergo direct development which means they don't go through all the free swimming tadpole stuff. Instead the frogs lay some eggs from which emerge fully formed mini-frogs. I apologize for the photo quality but I was freezing there, it was very very cold (maybe because it is 2500 meters above the sea level), so you can asume I was trembling. (Sorry guys, I'm used to warm tropical climate not to freezing tropical climate)
