Seychelles Frogs: Sooglossidae

Conservation Status



According to the World Conservation Union (IUCN), all four species are Vulnerable, which means that they face a high risk of extinction in the wild. Because all these frogs live in small areas, and some have small populations, changes to their habitat could possibly be dangerous to them. Fortunately, many live in Morne Seychellois National Park or inside the boundaries of a conservation project on Silhouette Island, and some seem to be able to survive in newly growing forests that were once cut down.
