Frogs ‘call for help’

AUSTRALIA’S frogs are calling for help and you can play a key role in saving them by taking part in Australia’s biggest frog count – FrogID Week – which finishs on Sunday.

FrogID Week is the next phase of the Australian Museum’s FrogID citizen science program, aimed at collecting frog calls across the nation – at a moment in time – to establish a benchmark from which frog populations can be monitored annually.

You can help save Australia’s frogs by recording their sounds.

Simply download the free FrogID app on your phone and head outside to listen for frogs.

When you hear a frog, record the sound with the FrogID app and submit it to the FrogID program.

It is easy and free.
