Amphibians News

Salamanders are everywhere.

We’re launching a new conservation research initiative focused on our Salamander Crossing Brigades.

This spring, our citizen scientists documented 50 new vernal pools in seven towns.

Two of our most prominent citizen science programs center around amphibians and their habitat. Why this focus on frogs, toads, and salamanders?

This was the Vernal Pool Project’s inaugural year in Peterborough, where 20 enthusiastic citizen scientists visited 50 potential vernal pools.

Longtime Salamander Crossing Brigade volunteer Emily Wilson won an award for her essay, “Goldenrod Spots.”
