Love in the Time of Extinction - A Harlequin Toad Romance Hanging by a Branch
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Lucas Bustamante, we witness an enchanting moment between two Rio pescado harlequin toads. Perched on a branch in Azuay, Ecuador, these amphibian lovebirds showcase their vibrant colors and unique patterns. The female steals the limelight with her striking presence on the left side of the frame. However, there's more to this picture than meets the eye. These mesmerizing creatures belong to a critically endangered species that is teetering on the brink of extinction; some even fear they may already be extinct. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of our responsibility to protect and preserve Earth's biodiversity. As we delve into this snapshot, we are transported to Latin America's tropical paradise where these beautiful creatures call home. Their profiled side view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail – from their delicate skin texture to their expressive eyes. This image not only captures nature at its finest but also highlights the urgency for conservation efforts in biodiversity hotspots like Ecuador. Let it serve as a wake-up call for all those who cherish wildlife and understand that every species plays an essential role in maintaining our planet's delicate balance. Lucas Bustamante has masterfully frozen time with his lens, immortalizing this male-female pair forever within his stunning composition.
