chytrid :)
yes it gets on anything even humans but it doesn't effect us
it kills it
no it only effects them when there developing
Rising temperatures, habitat destruction, and the spread of the deadly chytrid fungus have wiped out dozens of species of harlequin frogs in recent years.
Most tree frog extinction and endangerment is due to chytridiomycosis which is a disease caused by chytrid fungus.
Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis is an example of a chytrid fungus belonging to the phylum Chytridiomycota. It is a pathogen responsible for the disease chytridiomycosis, which affects amphibians worldwide.
you can eat it
symbiotic :)
This hideous fungus attaches to the frogs skin, and begins to grow on the frog. The frog now being covered with fungus finds it difficult to breath. So basically it kills them because they cant breathe.

Poison dart frogs, as their name suggests, secrete a poison through their skin. The poison functions like an acid, seeping through skin and affecting neural activity. As a result of their powerful poison, the frogs have no animal predators (except for humans). Sadly, the poison dart frog is threatened by a fungus called chytrid fungus, which may be the only living thing that lives on poison dart frogs. The fungus blocks the frog's skin, suffocating it. Poison dart frogs are now extinct in the wild.
