Had a great time filming with Australian legend Dr. Harry @BHGAus and lovely team @sydolympicpark that are doing the hard work of protecting one of the last and largest endangered green and golden bell frog populations in Sydney.
Sydney Olympic Park@sydolympicpark8 Nov 2024
We recently had a visit from Dr. Harry Cooper and the @BHGAus crew at Sydney Olympic Park. They covered Dr Anthony Waddleā€™s work at the Park to protect one of Australiaā€™s largest remaining populations of the endangered Green and Golden Bell Frog. Catch the story on November 15!

Just published! šŸø #FrogID has been highlighted as a key case study, showing how #citizenscience data can play a crucial role in informing conservation efforts. Check out the new study in The Conversation: theconversation.com/citizen-ā€¦

Citizen scientists can help save Australiaā€™s threatened species if we give them more direction

New research examines how citizen science data contributes to decisions by governments and conservation organisations about which species are at risk of extinction, and how they can be conserved.

Behold the linsang, the snakiest feliform. Closely related to cats but proportioned almost like a monitor lizard... If serpopards were real they'd probably descend from something like this :B
