Scientist in Bolivia are in a five year race to save the Seheuncas Water Frog from extinction.
Only one animal is known to be alive, a male named Romeo, in the Cochabamba Natural History Museum, Bolivia. At 10 years old, there are as few as 5 years to find another specimen before they possibly go extinct. If another can be found, they plan to set up a breeding programme.
Upon, googling the Seheuncas Water Frog, no results come up. Is it a little known species? Or just goes by another common name? Cannot find its Latin name either.
