Researchers from the Bern Natural History Museum and an international team discovered eight new frog species in Borneo.
The discovery increases the number of known 'guardian frog' species from two to ten.
Male guardian frogs display unique behavior by guarding eggs on land and carrying tadpoles on their backs to water.
Many of the newly discovered species are already classified as endangered due to limited habitats and environmental threats.
