Not Just Newts: Behind the Scenes with the Amphibian Foundation
Presented by The Amphibian Foundation
SOLD OUT
Atlanta is home to a unique nonprofit dedicated to the conservation and research of amphibians amidst a global population decline. In 2016, the Amphibian Foundation formed to focus on conserving two of Georgia’s most imperiled species (Gopher Frog and Flatwoods Salamander). Since then has begun working on other native and globally endangered amphibians. Closed to the public, this is a chance to see the conservation collections and meet Foundation staff working hard to save these vital and sensitive animals from extinction.
Note there is a second session of this event later in the day at 3:15pm. See here for info.
