Amphibian Ecology and Road Rescue Training

Cornwall Town Hall

Soon the calls of spring peepers will signal that the yearly migration of amphibians from their land-based winter homes to nearby wetlands has begun. Each spring salamanders and frogs move en masse to water where they find mates and deposit their eggs and then retrace their journey back, often crossing our roads at great peril to themselves. The Cornwall Conservation Commission has invited biologists from the North Branch Nature Center to share details of this migration and describe how we, as residents, can assist amphibians in crossing roads safely. And, we will be invited to become a part of North Branch's Amphibian Road Crossing Citizen Science Project, working with others in Addison County and throughout the State to rescue thousands of amphibians while collecting important migration data used by ecologists and planners.

Families are welcome to participate. Please join us.
