Croak Croak


No, not a return of my flu. Instead I have discovered that it is the Year of the Frog. And no again, this does not mean that the french are going to win all sports this year. It really is the Year of the Frog, and Sir David Attenborough is the patron. There is actually a serious side to this, apparently frogs throughout the world are succumbing to a fungus and they are gradually dying out. So if you do see any frogs you may want to consider giving them some Canesten to take home.

Very susceptible to environmental changes and pollution is your frog. Parts of the world use numbers and species as a key measurement indicator.

Also once worked on a scheme in Australia that used 'Platypus count' as a success criteria for a river water quality improvement project.

That pleased me greatly :-)

As does the idea of issuing amphibians with Cannestan. :-)
