My name is Ryan Ivankovic. I am former biology student who fell in
love with Anthropology, and have since changed programs. I attend
the University of Waterloo in Waterloo Ontario, Canada. I have been
keeping Dendrobatids and Mantellas for almost two years now. I am
proud to say that I have had success with breeding Dendrobates
auratus, as well as Dendrobates azureus. My fascination and
addiction to this hobby, grow stronger every day. There is just
something magical about having these little anuran ambassadors and a
piece of their rainforest home in the snow-choked country that I
live in. I have met a lot of great people as a result of this hobby
as well, and I have to thank Mark Pepper for his advice, guidance
and fabulous frogs. I am also grateful to have such a valuable
resource such as frognet. I will be travelling down to IAD this year
with Mark Pepper, so it will be nice to put some faces with the
names that I see all the time. I am looking forward to the trip.
Thanks everyone

the University of Waterloo in Waterloo Ontario, Canada. I have been
keeping denrdobatids and mantellas for about a year and a half now.
I am happy to say that my first auratus froglet just morphed out
yesterday (thanks to Tracy Hicks' tadpole food recipe and Mark
Pepper's tips). My fascination with this hobby grows stronger every
day. I have met a lot of great people as a result of this hobby, and
I have to thank Mark Pepper for his guidance and fabulous frogs. I
am also grateful to have a resource such as frognet.
