The Ascotán salt flat frog (Telmatobius philippii) is a frog. It lives in Bolivia and Chile.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog spends almost all of its time in the water. Scientists saw it in streams high in the Andes mountains. The scientists saw the frog between 3710 and 4100 meters above sea level.[1][2]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is in very big danger of dying out. Human beings changed the places where the frogs lived by taking the water from the streams for farms.[1]
