LEMUR LEAF FROG
Hylomantis lemur
Numbers of this striking nocturnal tree frog have
crashed by over 80 per cent due to the fungal disease
chytridiomycosis and habitat loss. Several institutions,
including Atlanta Botanical Garden, Manchester
Museum and Bristol Zoo, have been breeding the
amphibians in captivity for future release one day.
