Ideas for prospective volunteers
Please get in contact before getting started!
- Write a caresheet.
- Write an article. A few ideas for articles: terrarium substrates, an newt/sal identification key, emergency management plans for pet amphibians, a guide to dealing with common problems in newly-acquired petshop firebellied newts, a guide to management of large collections of amphibians, etc., etc.
- Allow us to post previously-written material about amphibian care.
- Translate information into English (with permission of the author).
- Assemble species data. Many of our species entries are lacking the standard set of data that goes into the top blue box (subspecies, range, conservation status, etc.). You can help us by assembling this data from other sources. If you have a particular interest in one group of caudates, you could focus on collecting the information for that group.
- Put information into HTML. If you can read and write HTML, we need you!
