Chytridiomycosis primarily attacks the skin of frogs. The disease is caused by the chytrid fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, which disrupts the frog's ability to absorb water and regulate electrolytes through their skin. This infection can lead to severe health issues, including dehydration, cardiac arrest, and often results in high mortality rates in affected populations.
