Rheobatrachus silus

Rheobatrachus silus
This Queensland frog carried its young in its stomach, then released them through its mouth. The last known wild record was in 1981, and the last captive frog died in 1983. Fungal disease has been proposed as a cause. Museum specimens, such as the one pictured, still record the species’ unusual anatomy.
