The Red Frog Story - Frog Documentary - Oophaga pumilio - Bastimentos Island, Panama 

That is great news.

Chris van der Lingen is a hero!

liekens tijl hoi

hi?

liekens tijl heb jij info over Dutch Rana? de revieuws zijn goed maar op de forum zie ik er niet veel over

een vraag die je beter op een van de fora kan stellen, het heeft weinig met deze video of onderwerp te maken denk ik dan... :D maar ik kan je zeggen dat al mijn bakken,stelling en een deel van mijn dieren van bij Rana komen en ik ben over alles meer dan tevreden!

liekens tijl oké helaas zijn mn ouders niet over te halen... ach ja dan maar wachten.

So sad to know that is going on in the environment....

I used this one: amzn.to/2Vr9Mfy

I was in a swamp and they were crawling all over me the worms too and other creatures

People who are not afraid of the red frogs have never had nightmares they died in a forest and were paraylized and eaten alive by worms on the forest floor horrifying dream as a child

I am actually deathly afraid of snakes and parasites

People who made fun of me have no idea of how terrifying it was have a dream of being lost in the swamp

I dreamt of costa rica when I was feverish and sick as a three or four year old

Don't be too upset. These are reports from people who need everything to be a complete disaster in order to receive fat research grants. If everything is fine they need to find real jobs basically. That's the problem with "conservationism". It very easily turns into a scam, where the resources you get are tied to how many species you can present as endangered. And it is a scam now, with greedy politicians and corporations right behind the "scientists".

I agree with your comment sometimes. But not here. I personally financed this film, filmed it, edited it, and at the end of the day, I am out a few thousand dollars simply to tell others what is going on in Bastimentos. I am actually a high school math teacher (my real job). I gain nothing from this, but I hope the frogs gain something. I am a little surprised at how ignorant your comments are, but this is the internet...

No, what I meant is that "anthropogenic global warming" and "climate change" and similar nonexistent or fanciful things are like a postmodern version of the devil from the middle ages. Anything bad happening that scientists (priests) can't explain is automatically the fault of humans and we're evil and bad and all need to die. I've even heard some "scientists" claim that increased volcanic activity and even increased solar activity are caused by "human caused global warming". And it's just another superstition. A lazy, bogus "explanation" that doesn't require any evidence because all the stupid peasants have already been preconditioned to believing it And the very basic truth here is that "scientists" have absolutely no idea whatsoever what the natural extinction rate of frogs is, because they haven't been studied with the sort of obsessive detail they are now for long enough to know. And you can not trust reports about what species are and are not threatened, endangered and extinct, because there are political agendas underpinning everything now. The UN is gobbling up more and more land as "protected zones", and the elitists who run it have a motive for presenting things as as bad as possible to legitimize this process. Humans are always, always bad and need to die, and globalist politicians are always, always good. And even is they are not, we can just add the words "scientists think" to everything to make any debate impossible. As a high school teacher you are exactly the sort of person who is in the crosshairs of the worst of this anti human propaganda from the sociopathic people making all the decisions in this plutocratic, oligarchical society. After all, you're the one tasked with brainwashing the next generation. And you can hardly be trusted with that unless you personally believe as much of it as possible. Hitler is perfect and good and all Germans must love him. This you must fervently believe or you will find yourself unemployed. And no, it is not at all any different from this, whatever you choose to believe. You must believe in or pretend to believe in globalism, feminism, homosexual normalcy, "democracy" and any number of other entirely unscientific things. Or you will be fired. And I should know. I used to be a teacher. I thought that my job was to help my students learn how to think rather than indoctrinate them into what to think. But I was wrong. My job was to be a brainwasher, and I failed miserably at it by encouraging my students to question authority. Which is incidentally what I thought the scientific process was supposed to be about. As it turns out the purpose of science is to generate politically convenient truths for the oligarchy, and not to teach people about the world. I figured this out too late though. I'm not even saying you're wrong. I'm saying that you have all sorts of preconceptions that prevent you from looking at these things objectively. Assume that every "authority" in the world has a motive to lie to you and then look at everything again. And again, and again. That would be a scientific approach. But it is almost illegal now. Say or even think one thing that isn't according to what the "scientific consensus" is and you will be treated like an intellectual leper. And science is not supposed to be a consensus activity. I'm sorry that you spent a thousand dollars repeating some of what is actually nothing more than propaganda. I think it would have been a much better film if you had done your own thinking, rather than rely on data from people who categorically can not be trusted because they have financial and political motives to exaggerate. I believe in local conservationism, period. Like the frogs near my town. They really were threatened. Not by some vague, global, bogus threat from the evil humans, but by people walking their dogs near the ponds they were breeding in in spring. A notice was sent out to everyone to please walk the dog somewhere else in April and May and the frogs recovered. That is the sort of conservationism that has a chance of working. But not when "anthropogenic global warming" is artificially inserted as a bogus "explanation" for things. You can"t do anything about that locally, even if it wasn't retarded anti human propaganda, so the entire thing becomes pointless. But detergent runoff in the water, pets, leaking chemicals from plastic, noise etc are all things you can easily do something about locally. The basic idea is to figure out what has changed, if anything, and take steps to reverse some of those things. Personally I will always believe changes to the habitats of frogs and other animals has more to do with synthetic chemicals being introduced into the wild because of elitist stupidity than anything else. And I wasn't the one who decided to move from paper, metal and glass to plastic. Or from natural chemistry that cannot be patented by some rich sociopath to synthetic chemistry that can. Politicians, bureaucrats and even "conservationists" were. I was fine with organically degradable things as my trash because that makes sense. But no, it was "bad for the trees" and caused "anthropogenic global warming" when I burned it in my stove. Again, think. Just please please think.

Fishslap 33 you cannot deny chytridiomycosis is a human induced issue. The same goes with agrochemical contamination, climate change, introduced species and stratospheric ozone depletion. This issue is a global crisis - when a whole class of organisms shows rapid declines it highlights our dire ecological situation.

Remove climate change from your brain. I refuse to listen to anything you say as long as this globalist turd is in your rant. it has always been happening, ergo it is not caused by humans. The ozone hole was their last scam, which you would know had you been alive in the 1980s. They made all sorts of hysterics about that, and then it was discovered that the ozone layer waxes and vanes and is now stronger than it was when measurements started. Chemical pollution, yes. Species introduction, yes. You could even add nuclear fallout from radioactive plant meltdowns and waste, as well as the Israeli and US use of depleted uranium munitions to the list. Or overfishing. Or deforestation. But all of these things can be solved WITHOUT GLOBAL GOVERNMENT! And that is probably why they are not issues of any relevance to the environazi movement at all. But not man made climate change and the ozone layer. These are frauds, and you lose all credibility as soon as you reference them. These bogus issues are not being hyped for environmental reasons, but political, economic and eugenics reasons. There are too many people you see, according to swine like Rockefeller. And the environazi movement is the way we're going to fix that. EEVUL HUMANS and anthropogenic global warming and ozone monsters and OOGABOOGABOOGA! This crap will lead to genocide. In fact it already is, because third world countries can't afford useless, absurd things like "carbon taxes". Starvation in Africa now? Yes, that is caused by the "environmental" treaties the western barbarians forced the Africans to sign in Copenhagen and Paris. It's genocide. Is that what you want? Do you like dead Africans by the millions, mass sterilization in the west and bankster parasites ruling over the remaining pile of corpses? If you do, you should keep repeating their propaganda about anthropogenic global warming, climate change and the ozone layer. KILL THE POOR! KILL EVERYONE!

I'm the strongest frog

Ahahahahah

That's my evil laugh

It's a horrible situation but imagine how desperate the kid must have been for money. The same forces that are hurting the frogs are hurting the humans.
