Characteristics Spectacled bear
<> Spectacled bears are only seen <> Golden dart frogs tend to search
Reproductive events together during mating seasons,
when they mate together.
<> Together, they have either one or
two bear cubs.
<> Spectacled bears reach sexual
maturity
<> Spectacled bears have a “K” life
Parental care strategy, which means they spend
lots of energy and care in their off-
springs.
<> Mother bear takes care of her
cubs for around 8 months after their
birth. After that, they’re ready to
take care of themselves.
<> Bear cubs have an average size
Size of 300g, they grow until 340
pounds, while females grow until
180 pounds.
Movement <> Spectacled bears are lonely crea-
tures, they aren’t sedentary, because
they’re constantly moving around
the Andean Mountains. They only
come together when it’s mating sea-
son.

Golden dart frog
in pairs for an ideal breeding hut, af-
ter that, the female lays down eggs
while the male fertilizes the clutch.
<> An average clutch will have
around a total of 40 eggs.
<> Frogs reach sexual maturity at an
age of 8 months.
<> Frogs have a mixture of “r” re-
productive with “K”, however, they
tend to go with an “r” reproductive
strategy.
<> Frogs leave their eggs in the
wild, while visiting them at least
once a week. After 10-18 days, the
eggs mature to tadpoles, which the
male frog carries into a body of wa-
ter, where after some months (hope-
fully) they grow into frogs.
<> Golden dart frogs are tiny, mea-
suring the same size as a paper clip
(20-40 millimeters), and their
growth is quite minimal from when
they’re tadpoles to when they’re
adults.
<> Golden dart frogs don’t migrate,
they usually stay in a patch in their
natural habitat.
