Open Question

How many poison dart frogs exist in the wild?

Open Question

Population studies exist for individual Dendrobatidae species at specific field sites, but chytrid fungus disease and habitat loss are changing numbers unevenly across roughly 200 species, so no reliable total population figure has been assembled for the family.

What would resolve this Coordinated field surveys across the family range tracking chytrid impact and habitat loss by species.
