Colima Shiny Peeping Frog

<em>Eleutherodactylus orarius</em>, the Colima Shiny Peeping Frog, is a small frog in the family Eleutherodactylidae. This species is assessed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List. It is documented in Mexico and is associated with freshwater habitats, moist forests, and wetlands. Like other members of the genus <em>Eleutherodactylus</em>, this species likely undergoes direct development, with eggs hatching directly into froglets rather than passing through a free-living tadpole stage. The epithet "orarius" suggests a coastal or shoreline association within its Mexican range. Diet, population estimates, population trend, and biological measurements including average length, weight, and lifespan are not specified in available records for <em>Eleutherodactylus orarius</em>. Biological traits of this species remain poorly documented in the scientific literature. Its Least Concern status reflects that populations are not currently considered under significant extinction risk, though the narrow endemism of many <em>Eleutherodactylus</em> species suggests that habitat degradation could pose future threats.

호주 동부와 동남부의 상징적인 유대류로, 체중이 최대 15kg이며 저칼로리인 유칼립투스 잎 식단에서 에너지를 절약하기 위해 하루 최대 22시간을 잠으로 보낸다. 대부분의 다른 포유류를 죽일 수 있는 유독한 유칼립투스 성분을 처리하도록 고도로 특화되어, 해독에 특별히 적응된 장내 미생물총을 지닌다. 2022년 기후 변화, 서식지 개발, 클라미디아 감염으로 인한 개체수 감소로 위기종으로 지정되었다.
