The vibrant Panamanian golden frog, also known as the Zetek's golden frog or Atelopus zeteki, is an iconic amphibian native to the cloud forests and rainforests of central Panama. This strikingly beautiful creature, often referred to as a golden poison frog or simply a golden frog, is renowned for its brilliant, almost iridescent yellow-orange coloration, frequently adorned with irregular dark blotches or spots. This captivating hue serves as a potent warning to predators, signifying its highly toxic skin secretions, a classic example of aposematism in the natural world. These fascinating Central American amphibians are diurnal, meaning they are active during the day, and typically inhabit fast-flowing streams and rivers, their preferred breeding grounds. Their slender bodies and relatively long limbs are well-suited for navigating the rocky, aquatic environments they call home. While often observed near water, the Panamanian harlequin frog, another common name reflecting its unique appearance, can also be found amongst the leaf litter and vegetation along stream banks. Sadly, this truly unique Panamanian endemic species faces a critical conservation status, battling significant threats to its survival. Understanding the ecology of these remarkable golden frogs of Panama is crucial for appreciating the delicate balance of their natural habitats and the broader biodiversity of tropical ecosystems. Efforts to protect this critically endangered Neotropical amphibian are paramount for its continued existence.
