The Panamanian Golden Frog is endemic to Central Panama and is considered a symbol of good fortune. It is referred to as taxi-cab yellow with brown splotches. Figures of the frogs in a variety of poses can be found in all the tourist shops. Although it was abundant in the not too distant past, they began disappearing and by 2002 they were gone.
