@Caribbean Flamingo Some of the merch I saw in Jagat Satwa still has the three frog on it

@Fargusno looks like the frog was currently off-displayed and possibly will be displayed again later in the future.

@Caribbean Flamingo @Fargusno It being in merchandising doesn't mean that the frog couldn't have bittem the dust since then, these frogs are notoriously fragile but I trust the care practices of Jagat Satwa more than other zoos that have kept the species

According to @Rizz Carlton this may be a Vietnamese crocodile lizard, not a Chinese crocodile lizard

@Fargusno they're still the same species, just two different subspecies from two different regions.

Another reason taxonomic/latin name is important to take note as well
