Posted: 26 Mar 2005 In my area we have one small pond maybe 20ft by 10ft and a small relatively fast flowing river. We have always achieved a good population of frogs, however I chose a different route home from the shop this morning and came across bucketfulls of desicated spawn lying on the road. Now kids always go and collect tadpoles, but this was blatant rape of nature! What will this do the the local population? I don't view the river as a means for frogs to spawn, and the quantity suggests that the pond has been wiped out, I will head down there later and see what's what! |
