The message

The Panamanian Golden Frog has almost vanished from the wild, but people carried the last ones to safety and are caring for them until they can return. You do not have to survive alone. Let someone help carry you for a while.


Ask yourself

Who could I let help me right now?

The animal

These golden frogs live beside loud mountain streams, so they signal by waving their hands, a kind of frog semaphore.
