Romeo Gets its Juliet!
Jan 21, 2019
Romeo, a frog believed to be last of its kind, finally found a lover after spending ten years of his life in isolation. The frog belongs to the Sehuencas class that is on verge of extinction. Romeo was found ten years ago in Bolivia and was considered as the only Sehuencas water frog left on this planet.
Romeo also has a Twitter profile that described him as ''World's Loneliest Frog''. He also had a dating profile that mentioned ''not to start off heavy or something, but I'm literally the last of my species''.
So proud of this team! Thank you from the bottom of my (no longer lonely) heart @Global_Wildlife and @MuseodOrbigny https://t.co/UvE1murRwp

A special frog was once thought to be the last one of its kind on the planet and this gave conservationists a mission to find Romeo a female of his species who might help save the species from becoming extinct.
So last year conservation groups partnered to build a profile for the amphibian on Match.com. Romeo known as “world’s loneliest frog” also started to share his feeling on Twitter with many people relating to his struggles with romance.
Check out what people tweeted:
...if this frog can find a soul mate in 2019 then so can I probably https://t.co/7ZHfyiGOZy
