Fascinating facts about the Rio Mutum Snouted Treefrog

The Rio Mutum snouted treefrog lives only in Brazil, making it an endemic species you won’t find anywhere else on the planet.
It can be found hopping through a surprising mix of places, from low-land rainforests and misty mountain woods to scrubby shrubland, plus both permanent and seasonal freshwater marshes.
Even heavily degraded former forests still host this frog, showing its ability to survive in landscapes that have been logged or cleared.
Scientists list habitat loss as the main threat, meaning that as Brazil’s forests shrink, the frog’s future grows more uncertain.
