The Brooding Father Frog

About this episode

The Puerto Rican forest frog, known as the coqui, exemplifies unique parental care among amphibians. While the female lays her eggs and departs, the male takes on the crucial role of protecting and moistening the eggs, dedicating up to 23 hours a day to this task. The Creator designed a system where both parents contribute to the survival of their species while fulfilling their respective roles.
