Thousands of tadpoles of the endangered Puerto Rican Crested Toad, or sapo concho, await transformation at Brookfield Zoo. The concho's recent surge in attention followed the release of Bad Bunny's album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, which features a cartoon version of the toad. The album has mobilized donations for a new breeding center and brought global awareness to the toad's endangered status. Bad Bunny's work has become a voice for various communities facing displacement, drawing parallels between Puerto Rico and other regions struggling with cultural challenges.
Bad Bunny's album Debí Tirar Más Fotos and its accompanying film have resurrected interest in the endangered Puerto Rican Crested Toad, also known as sapo concho.
The concho has become a symbol of resilience and hope for many who relate its plight to their own experiences of displacement.
Bad Bunny addresses issues of cultural erosion and gentrification in songs, comparing Puerto Rico's struggles to those faced by Hawaii and other communities.
The nostalgic title track of the album has been adopted as an anthem for the Palestinian people and used to highlight life in conflict zones.
