Experts prepare an Oophaga lehmanni frog to be released into the Colombian Pacific, in Dagua, Valle del Cauca department, Colombia, 09 June 2022. The poisonous frog “Oophaga lehmanni”, an endemic species of the Colombian Pacific, has paid for the sin of its beauty with its near extinction as a species due to illegal wildlife trafficking, an ecological crime from which it is beginning to recover. This is because for the first time its reproduction has been achieved and almost thirty specimens were released to repopulate its habitat in the Colombian department of Valle del Cauca.
