The southern Darwin鈥檚 frog (Rhinoderma darwinii) has seen聽its population fall by 90 per cent in Chile鈥檚 Parque Tantauco forests due to the chytrid fungus. This was thought to only spread through water, which the southern Darwin鈥檚 frog avoids. However, the Zoological Society London and non-profit group Ranita de Darwin have now found it also spreads through frog-to-frog contact on聽land, information that could help better protect them.
