1 week left until FrogID Week starts! #FrogIDWeek is Australia’s biggest annual snapshot of frog species. Every frog has a unique call, and by recording them with the free #FrogID app, we can better understand how frogs are doing across the country. frogid.net.au

We invited citizen scientists to test their skills in frog call validation. 57% of public IDs were completely accurate, highlighting the challenge of IDing multiple species at once and the resources needed to support public engagement in #FrogID validation australian.museum/blog/amri-news…

Just published! 🐸 #FrogID has been highlighted as a key case study, showing how #citizenscience data can play a crucial role in informing conservation efforts. Check out the new study in The Conversation: theconversation.com/citizen-scient…

Spring has sprung! Our database is inundated with spring-breeding frogs like the Eastern Banjo Frog (Limnodynastes dumerilii). While we continue to address a backlog of submissions, every call counts and will be listened to! Please keep recording with #FrogID 🐸

It was such a privilege to attend #wch10 in Boneo and represent the Australian Museum @AustmusResearch and @FrogIDAus with my presentation on #CitizenScience and Banjo #frogs! Also great to hear about the fantastic research from around the globe 🐸🐊🐢🦎🐍

So excited to see @Eli_Ecology talk about his research on Australian frogs, fires, flood, and fungi at 4.15 today (Wednesday). Come along to Room 5 to hear more! #wch10

@shannonwkaiser Congratulations! This is such great work!

I'm so excited to share that we've been published in Nature! Our study shows that saunas can be made from inexpensive material purchased from hardware stores to vaccinate frogs from the deadly fungal disease, chytridiomycosis. nature.com/articles/s4158…
