26 April - Save The Frogs Day

 


Save The Frogs Day is an annual event dedicated to raising awareness about amphibian conservation and the importance of protecting frog populations and their habitats. It's typically observed on the last Saturday of April each year.

Frogs and other amphibians play a crucial role in maintaining the health of ecosystems worldwide. They help control insect populations, serve as indicators of environmental health, and contribute to nutrient cycling. However, amphibian populations are facing numerous threats, including habitat loss, pollution, climate change, disease, and invasive species.

Save The Frogs Day was established by the nonprofit organization Save The Frogs! in 2009 to address these threats and promote amphibian conservation efforts globally. The day is marked by various events and activities organized by individuals, organizations, schools, and communities around the world.

These activities may include educational workshops, frog-themed art and music events, nature walks, habitat restoration projects, citizen science initiatives, and fundraising campaigns to support amphibian conservation projects.

Save The Frogs Day aims to inspire people of all ages to learn about amphibians, appreciate their importance, and take action to protect them and their habitats. By raising awareness and mobilizing communities, the day contributes to the conservation of frogs and other amphibians, helping to ensure their survival for future generations.
