The parents mate and deposit their eggs in humid hiding places deep in the forest. While the larvae mature in their eggs, the male makes sure they do not dry out, and moistens them if necessary. When the tadpoles hatch, the male carries them, one by one, to a cute little bromeliad pool, where they then spend the rest of their time as larvae.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=&#8221;&#8221; row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;4&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;4&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-xsdn&#8221; back_image=&#8221;132342&#8243; back_attachment=&#8221;scroll&#8221; parallax=&#8221;yes&#8221; overlay_color=&#8221;color-jevc&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;30&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; top_divider=&#8221;gradient&#8221; bottom_divider=&#8221;gradient&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;165056&#8243; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221; overlay_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_vertical=&#8221;bottom&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; style=&#8221;dark&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; radius=&#8221;sm&#8221; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;869279&#8243;][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; limit_content=&#8221;&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;145342&#8243;][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; column_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; style=&#8221;dark&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; radius=&#8221;sm&#8221; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; parallax_intensity=&#8221;2&#8243; width=&#8221;9\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;201935&#8243;][vc_custom_heading css_animation=&#8221;bottom-t-top&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;400&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;650697&#8243;]A small, reddish shimmering frog, genetically so extraordinary that it has been declared a separate species from its Poison Dart Frog kin.[\/vc_custom_heading][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; radius=&#8221;sm&#8221; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;3\/12&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;592158&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;184943&#8243;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;162604&#8243;]Demonic Poison Frog \u00a9 Benny Trapp, Frogs &amp; Friends[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;3&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;0&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;365760&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;2&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;883863&#8243;][vc_custom_heading uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;396896&#8243;]Experts needed[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;138848&#8243; el_class=&#8221;text-larger&#8221;]The world of the Demonic Poison Frog is just ten square kilometers, and unfortunately it is by no means as forgotten as Sir Conan Doyle\u2019s Tepui: At the Cerro Yapacana, gold is mined in an open pit. For this, parts of the forest are burned again and again. The chemicals used in the search for gold may be a ticking time bomb for the frogs. And the political crisis in Venezuela increases the risk of illegal activities. Therefore, it is high time to systematically breed this specimen in terrariums \u2013 which has already proven to be successful. The experts of Citizen Conservation are ready to get to work. This is no easy task, because the frogs reproduce slowly, lay few eggs and are hard to breed &#8211; a case for dedicated CC specialists.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=&#8221;0&#8243; override_padding=&#8221;yes&#8221; h_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; top_padding=&#8221;2&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;4&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; equal_height=&#8221;yes&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;0&#8243; column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;731599&#8243;][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; back_image=&#8221;133287&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;4&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;7&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; el_class=&#8221;inverted-device-order&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;709232&#8243; mobile_height=&#8221;120px&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; position_horizontal=&#8221;left&#8221; position_vertical=&#8221;middle&#8221; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; back_color=&#8221;color-lxmt&#8221; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;4&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;674740&#8243; back_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text_color=&#8221;accent&#8221; heading_semantic=&#8221;h6&#8243; text_size=&#8221;h6&#8243; text_transform=&#8221;uppercase&#8221; uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;203954&#8243; text_color_type=&#8221;uncode-palette&#8221;]For breeders[\/vc_custom_heading][vc_custom_heading text_size=&#8221;h3&#8243; sub_lead=&#8221;small&#8221; subheading=&#8221;The Minyobates steyermarki is especially difficult to breed, so it should only be kept by experts and is therefore not yet freely accessible in the CC program.
