On August 23, 1960, a remarkable discovery was made in Equatorial Guinea: the largest frog ever recorded was caught. This giant amphibian, known as the Goliath frog (Conraua goliath), weighed an astounding 3.3 kilograms (7.3 pounds) and measured approximately 32 centimeters (12.6 inches) in length. The Goliath frog is renowned for being the largest living frog species on Earth.

This record-breaking specimen highlighted the incredible biodiversity of the region and captured the imagination of the scientific community. Goliath frogs are native to the rainforests of Central Africa and are known for their impressive size and unique physical characteristics. They can live up to 15 years in the wild and are an important part of their ecosystem, contributing to the balance of the local environment.

The discovery of such a large specimen was a significant event in the field of herpetology and added to our understanding of these fascinating creatures. Today, the Goliath frog remains a symbol of the extraordinary wildlife found in Equatorial Guinea and a reminder of the importance of conserving these remarkable species and their habitats.
