Faszinierend, was es alles so für Lebensformen gibt. Fällt unter die Rubrik: "Wieder was gelernt".
Irgendwie frustrierend dabei ist nur, dass wir von vielen Arten gar nicht wissen, dass es sie gibt, bevor sie aussterben.

Zitat:How the hunt for a perfect picture has pushed the ‘magical’ galaxy frog towards extinctionhttps://www.euronews.com/green/2025/12/2...extinction
Scientists warn that the desire to photograph the rare galaxy frogs could be behind their mysterious disappearance. A group of endangered galaxy frogs, famed for their striking blue speckles and bright orange patterning, is presumed dead after disappearing from their natural habitat. [...]
Back in 2020, around seven of the tiny frogs – which grow to just 3.5 cm long – were discovered living beneath rotting logs on the forest floorin the Western Ghats, India. However, upon returning to the site between August 2021 and May 2022, researchers discovered that the logs had been overturned, the surrounding vegetation had been trampled, and all the frogs had vanished. Evidence suggests that wildlife photographers might be to blame.
