There are so many species on the brink of extinction that there are probobly species we don't even know about dying off. So you can never really say what the rarest species is.

The rarest frog ever is probably a species that hasn't been described yet or one that is thought to be extinct at the moment. There are lots of species that are isolated or restricted to very small patches of endangered habitat and are probably doomed for extinction. As for the information on the other species have a look at Andy's site in the reply below mine for some detailed care instructions on some of the animals listed. My website has a few brief care guides on some of the other species you listed and links to other sites that might help you out so you might want to have a look at that too. Good luck,

They are still finding new species of frogs in S. America. So I'd say the rarest is the one that hasn't been identified yet. Go down there. The rarest might be the one that gets named after you.
