Pristimantis educatoris is a species of frog discovered in 2010. The species was found while researchers were working on a way to save Panama's frogs from extinction from the deadly amphibian disease chytridiomycosis. The species was discovered in Omar Torrijos National Park. The frog resembles a common frog, but it is larger. A round finger and toe pads proved that it was a different species.[1][2]
