“Monitoring for Amphibians in Northwest British Columbia”


Since 2011, volunteers with the NWBC Reptile and Amphibian Monitoring Program have been monitoring amphibians from Dease Lake to Ft.St.James, and along Highway 16 to Prince Rupert and Kitimat.  Over the last five years, interesting trends in amphibian distributions have been recorded in this successful citizen science program.  Surprising aspects of the ecology of northern amphibians have important ramifications in the management of amphibian habitats.
