Identification and description:
Darwin's frog is a unique species discovered in Chile and Argentina, famous for its unusual reproductive behavior. After fertilization, males carry the eggs in their mouths until the tadpoles develop into small frogs. They are small in size, brown or green in color, and live in temperate forests, feeding on insects and small invertebrates. The species is threatened by habitat loss and pollution.

Recommended lens:
Macro – adjust based on distance, desired framing (portrait or habitat), and approach conditions.

Photography tips:
Photograph Darwin's frog using a macro lens to capture its fine details, especially its colors and interesting behaviors related to reproduction. It is best to photograph it when it is perched on vegetation or rocks. Be discreet, as while it is relatively calm, it can be easily disturbed by human presence.
