#Regram #RG @earthalliance: Today’s news about the ‘rediscovery’ of the Starry Night Harlequin Toad is a testament not only to the incredible knowledge of indigenous people about the natural world, but to their critical role in protecting wildlife and wildlands. Thanks to the Arhuaco people of the Sogrome community in Colombia’s Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, for the first time since 1991 biologists have documented this stunning toad. Now the community’s spiritual leaders and authorities will work with biologists from @fundacionatelopus to bring together both the scientific and spiritual perspectives to best continue protecting the amphibians. @global_wildlife_conservation @amaslasierra Photo courtesy of Fundacion Atelopus
