Reptile/Amphibian Conservation Update: US, Global, Legislation, Pesticide Bans, etc.

[findi]

Hi All,

The global extinction crisis faced by amphibians has been much in the news in recent years, as have threats to sea turtles, Madagascar’s tortoises, Asia’s freshwater turtles and other long-suffering groups. In the USA, a number of reptile and amphibian species are also in dire straits despite, in some cases, federal protection. I hope this article inspires both hope and action in my many conservation-minded readers. Read article here: Reptile and Amphibian Conservation in the USA - 2012 Update | That Reptile Blog
