I am a Wikipedian from Lithuania. I am a geographer and have won various awards in school time. Now I'm very interested in anything about Latin America. Actual interests are Argentina, Peru, Paraguay, Indians. I have dreams one day to visit this amazing New World. I'm working mostly in the Lithuanian Wikipedia and also keep eye on and working in Samogitian, Aymara and Guarani Wikipedias. I'm a sysop at Lithuanian, Samogitian and Guarani Wikipedias. |

The Golden Toad (Bufo periglenes) was a small, shiny, bright-orange toad that was once abundant in a small region high-altitude cloud-covered tropical forests, about 30 square kilometers in area, above the city of Monteverde, Costa Rica. For this reason, it is sometimes also called the Monteverde Golden Toad, or the Monte Verde Toad. Other common English names include Alajuela Toad and Orange Toad. They were described in 1966, but since 1989, not a single Golden Toad has been seen anywhere in the world, and it is classified by the IUCN as an extinct species. Its extinction is cited as part of the decline in amphibian populations, and attributed to climate change due to global warming. |
