Founded in 2015, NGO Ranita de Darwin is the first Chilean non-profit Organization dedicated specifically to the conservation, research and dissemination of knowledge of amphibians in Chile and their habitats.
Why is Darwin’s frog our emblem?
Darwin’s frog has a unique form of parental care: the male carries the tadpoles in his vocal sac, sheltering them for several weeks until they grow and transform into tiny froglets, which are then released back into the forest. Just as Darwin’s frog protects its offspring to ensure their survival, we aim to safeguard the protection and survival of amphibians in Chile, which are highly threatened by human activity.
