    I have read that some females die during amplexus because of the length of it. Some other females also when gravid and if they do not release the eggs. I'll make sure I write back if and when I get more on this.

    There are currently efforts in gathering Atelopus owners, with the list of what they own to see if breeding efforts can be combined.
