The adult frog lives in [[bromeliad]] plants. The female frog lays eggs on leaves over water, and the tadpoles fall into the water when they hatch.<ref name=IUCN /> Scientists do not believe this frog is in danger of dying out because the [[habitat|place where it lives]] is not in danger. Human beings grow trees that the frogs can live in to make shade for cacao cabrucas farms.<ref name=IUCN /> Scientists think this frog can make useful chemicals in its skin. But they do not think anyone catches this frog to take the chemicals.<ref name=IUCN /> ==References== {{reflist}} {{biology-stub}} [[Category:Frogs of South America]] {{Taxonbar|from=Q3011561}}
