Find out about the frogs of the ACT region. What makes them special? How can we help to protect them? Learn how to attract frogs to your own backyard.
Based on the very popular resource, “Creating Frog Friendly Habitats”, Beth Mantle will take you through all you need to know to start turning your backyard into a beautiful suburban haven for many of our most common frog species. The talk will help you get to know some of the frogs of the ACT region, what they need to survive and thrive, and the ins and outs of encouraging them to your patch.
