The Piura water frog (Telmatobius ignavus) is a frog. It lives in Bolivia.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog spends some of its time in water. It lives in and near streams in forests on mountains and grassy places. Scientists saw it between 1840 and 3080 meters above sea level.[2][1]
Scientists do not think this frog lives in any protected parks.[1]
Young
The tadpoles swim in rocky pools and rockystreams.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN and from Peru say this frog is in big danger of dying out. Scientists are not sure why this frog is dying. Farms put bad chemicals in the streams where the frog lives. The fungal disease chytridiomycosis has killed many other frogs in South America. Peru's laws say that no one may kill or catch this frog. People do catch many frogs in Telmatobius to eat and use.[1]
