This actually supports the argument that there are no FR pumilio in the hobby.. which is what I was referring to and I believe Phil was as well.
There are alternate methods for "farming" pumilio as you can increase density and production by increasing tadpole deposition sites, but the problem is that there is no proof that this is occuring with the exported frogs or that the targeted populations can sustain those exports.

In my experience with looking around and asking around, that is not happening. My research centers around manipulating of rearing sites and when I presented the results in Bocas, it was largely received as a novel method.
My research suggests that it is highly possible that wild caught harvest is not happening in a sustainable fashion mostly because it is largely unregulated beyond export permits that say Oophaga pumilio. There is no specification of population, and some populations could be rather vulnerable. The best estimate I could find is that 15,000 pumilio were imported commercially from 2004-2008 (about 14,500 were reported as "captive bred" which really is just a ruse to get around quotas). So that's the numbers that are legally reported. Some populations, are rather small, such as Pastores (I estimated about 1351 frogs/ha, the highest density of any of the populations, which if that density stays constant through the island, there would only be only 30,000 frogs on the whole island).
There really is no regulation at the population level, which means that populations can easily be exploited and extirpated.
