Photo by @andywcoleman // There are over 500 amphibians in Ecuador, but I came to Mashpi Lodge, one of the National Geographic Unique Lodges of the World to see one of them - Mashpi Torrenteer (Hyloscirtus mashpi). The Mashpi frog was just confirmed to be a new species last year and they had been found in a stream near the lodge. We went out for a night hike armed with our boots, flashlights and (for me) a camera. As we splashed through the water in the dark, there were sounds all around reminding us that we were not alone. It was our flashlights that would help us find the smaller creatures that come out under the cover of darkness, and we painted the banks of the stream looking for any signs of them. I was taking photographs of a tree frog when our naturalist guide came over to tell me he found this Mashpi frog posing on a branch nearby. This year's theme for World Wildlife Day is "the future of wildlife is in our hands" and I was privileged to witness the conservation efforts at Mashpi to protect all of the species of the cloud forest. Head over to @andywcoleman to see another frog from the night hike. To read more about our Lodges experiences, visit www.nationalgeographiclodges.com #NatGeoLodges #mashpilodge #WorldWildlifeDay
