toadschooled:This golden beauty is known as the Black Mountain Boulder frog [Cophixalus saxatilis], not for its color, but for the Australian mountain of which it is endemic. These frogs are found in cool, moist caves formed by stacks of granite boulders in the mountainside. Although all populations of this frog are contained within Black Mountain National Park, they remain vulnerable due to human expansion. Image by Matthew McIntosh. -- source link
