In the past, the Silverstone’s poison frog’s habitat had been somewhat protected, but conservation of other areas is required, as is enforcement on smuggling activities.
In the past, the habitat area where the Silverstone’s poison frog occurs had been somewhat protected by the presence of terrorist groups (accepting drug crops used in drug trafficking). More recently, coca eradication campaigns and alternative development programs have diminished the presence of drug crops in the region.
Conservation of other areas where this species occurs is required, as is enforcement on smuggling activities.
