Here in Queensland we often hear about the steady advance of the introduced cane toad, however we don’t hear much about our native frogs.
Many of us have experienced the surprise of our common green tree frog under a toilet seat… are they thriving or at risk?
There are over 250 known Australian frog species, how are they responding to a changing environment? Which frogs are at risk and how can we help?
4ZZZ's Eliot Rifkin chatted about the FrogID Project with Dr Jodi Rowley the Lead Scientist of Australian Museum's National Citizen Science project - "FrogID".
For a deep dive...
Visit the FrogID site and don't forget the FrogID week section. Here's a Frog Field Guide as well as a frog territory map. If you'd like to focus in on Queensland Frogs, join the Queensland Frog Society or understand frogs from a world amphibian perspective.
…and lastly here’s another threat to our frogs - Amphibian Chytrid Fungus.
Download the FrogID phone app at either the Google or Apple stores, so you can get involved as a Citizen Scientist.
