As of today, peak season now, through ~October 31. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
During the rainy season, primarily from May to November, red-eyed tree frogs (Agalychnis callidryas) engage in mass breeding events across Costa Rica's lowland rainforests.
This period is marked by males calling to attract females, leading to the deposition of eggs on overhanging leaves and branches.
The subsequent tadpoles drop into water bodies below, where they undergo metamorphosis into juvenile frogs.
These events offer a unique opportunity to observe the frogs' nocturnal behaviors and reproductive rituals in their natural habitat.
