Sign the Petition "Save the golden Alpine salamander"

[paul_b]

Hi all,

Salamandra atra aurorae (critically endangered by the IUCN red list) ist threatened by exploitation of its natural habitat through wood harvesting.

So, the Societas Europaea Herpetologica (SHE), the Societas Herpetologica Italica (SHI), the International Society for the Study and Conservation of the Amphibians (ISSCA) and the IUCN Amphibian Specialist Group (IUCN ASG) started a Petition "Save the golden Alpine salamander".

I think we should support, so please sign the Petition:
Save the golden Alpine salamander!

Paul

This might just be me but i always watch sites like that for a while before i actually sign anything and this one seems a little suspicious, the numbers don't always add up to the number of times someone "signed it", it will often show hte same person having signed a few seconds ago for a long time, the number of needed signatures just went up too which i think is pretty odd :/

I think the suspicion is unfounded!
I watched the development almost from the beginning. Many of the signatories, I know personally. The development is consistent. The apparent discrepancy is probably attributable to the non-continuous updating.
... and, the protection of this species is more important than those reservations!
