Frogs are an indicator species, and their populations are among the first to decline when environmental conditions take a turn for the worse. FrogWatch USA is a nationwide program facilitated by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums that relies on data from citizen scientists to assess the conservation status of native amphibians. A network of trained volunteers submit their findings to a database that helps ecologists determine which species are where and develop effective conservation strategies.
Private FrogWatch trainings are available upon request with a minimum of 10 (or more) paying participants! Recommended for ages 12 and up. FrogWatch programs are non-refundable and non-transferable. Please reach out to brevardzooregistrar@brevardzoo.org for more information about this program.
