Kambo (Phyllomedusa bicolor) – Sticks from Peru with Burning Stick, Dragon Blood and Palo Santo

More about Kambo (Phyllomedusa bicolor)

Always fresh stock. Each Kambo stick is unique, but should contain enough secretion for approximately 75-100 so-called “dots”. Our good friend obtains the Kambo from two Matsés communities that consist of about twenty families. Each Kambo stick comes with two wooden burn sticks, a small bottle of Dragon’s blood (Sangre de Drago) and a stick of Palo Santo incense wood.

Kambo animal information

Phyllomedusa bicolor, also known as the Giant Leaf Frog or the Giant Monkey Frog, is a large green noctural frog that lives in the trees of the Peruvian and Brazilian Amazon. Males 91-103 mm, females 111-119 mm. The dorsum is dark green and the belly varies from white to yellow-white or cream. There are sparse white spots with dark frames on the lower lips, chest and front legs, and these are more dense on the flanks and hind legs. Fingers are transparent brown with large green adhesive discs. A prominent gland extends from behind the eye over the tympanum. The iris is dark gray. The species is arboreal and nocturnal. Males usually call from high trees, and descend with the female to construct nests 1-3 meters above ponds. Reproduction occurs throughout the year in ponds near to, or far from, streams, with a peak from November to May (rainy season). The females deposit about 600 un-pigmented eggs in a gelatinous mass in leaf nests hanging over ponds. The leaves are joined or folded with the aid of the male. After 8-10 days, the tadpoles hatch and fall into the water, where they complete development until metamorphosis. Like other amphibians from around the world, the giant monkey frog is threatened by climate change and habitat loss.
