This week I am joined by Dutch Ecologist and Amphibian Hobbyist, David Brouwer. David has a life long  passion passion for the Majorcan midwife toad (Alytes muletensis), and in this episode we take a deep dive into the natural history, conservation, captive breeding, and husbandry of one of the world's most unique amphibians. David and I begin our chat with a discussion about the value of natural spaces in an urban environment, and we go on to talk about the amphibian hobby in Continental Europe.  We then discuss the history and proper care of  Alytes muletensis.  This episode is sponsored by Gray Ghost Creations https://www.etsy.com/shop/GrayGhostCreations To Support the Podcast, for merch, and vivarium discounts please visit: https://linktr.ee/AmphibiCast To learn more about  Alytes muletensis visit: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNsYGoDe3TisOva5UF1cL-g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVv3CO08X2k  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H01JAJ_OCFA  https://www.chimaira.de/herpetology/midwife-toads.html  To support the podcast by becoming a patron, for merch and more visit https://linktr.ee/AmphibiCast?fbclid=PAAabbJ2n-pUsB82s3JVRpZMDjf8q5A1tuyFA-TUZC3E2Jy1TnOnGVQahbc3s_aem_ATKpEMfdfdOybrvTe07y5zN1RMDLhR6P3GzabogE3jq0Xa4opUEWBj0D4pF1RFTX6Ws
