Ten New Frogs Discovered
Posted by: Loren Coleman on February 2nd, 2009
Ten new frogs have been discovered in Columbia.
Scientists today announced the discovery of 10 amphibians believed to be new to science, including a spiky-skinned, orange-legged rain frog, three poison dart frogs and three glass frogs, so called because their transparent skin can reveal internal organs.
