“A pioneer in modern frog research, the American Museum of Natural History has one of the largest frog collections in the world. AMNH expeditions to remote mountaintops, as well as surveys of local wetlands, continue to uncover new populations and species - but also reveal environmental changes that threaten frogs’ existence. Many efforts are underway to reverse this downward trend globally and in our own backyards. As just one example, all of the live frogs displayed in this exhibition have been captive-bred, to protect their populations in the wild.”
This comprehensive site provides information on reproduction of frogs, how they protect themselves with camouflage, how they have evolved and how they live different ecosystems throughout the world. In addition there are fun facts on frogs and taped songs of the frogs of Madagascar.
