I know many of you are keen on reptiles and amphibians, so I thought I would take the opportunity to bring to your attention the invaluable work carried out by Amphibian and Reptile Conservation (ARC).Formerly the Herpetological Conservation Trust, ARC not only work hard towards reversing the decline of reptiles and amphibians, but also champion the promotion of greater amphibian and reptile awareness and education as well as expertly managing over 80 reserves, which are often great for birds too!There are plenty of projects, campaigns and surveys to get involved with, so you too can do you bit to help these charismatic creatures. But don’t just take my word for it, find out more here.Claire
Its a bit cold for amphibians and reptiles at the moment, but its certainly well worth taking a look at some of the surveys that you can get involved with when its warmer. There is some information on the various species as well which is really useful.
