Find a Frog in February

Annual citizen science frog searching program that allows everyone to contribute to the knowledge, understanding and management of our frogs and their habitats. The study area is the Councils of the Sunshine Coast, Noosa, Gympie and Fraser Coast, all of which provide funding to the program. This area includes the remarkable Mary River and adjacent, fragile coastal catchments. 1/4 of the frogs in this area are either extinct or threatened due to the development pressure on habitats and the effects of the Chytrid fungus at high altitude. The project aims to raise awareness of the general public, have schools and Bushcare groups involved in long-term monitoring to keep a watchful eye on populations during this era of unpredictable climatic shifts, and to receive, identify and store records from all over the area.
