Recent Extinct Golden Frog 1989

Wallpaper Description:

Compared to all the other frogs and toads that have gone extinct over the past quarter-century, there's nothing particularly special about the Golden Toad, except for its striking color--and that has been enough to make it the "poster toad" for amphibian extinction. First spotted in a Costa Rican "cloud forest" in 1964, the Golden Toad was seen only intermittently since, and the last documented encounter was in 1989. The Golden Toad is now presumed to be extinct, doomed by climate change and/or fungal infection.
