Amphibian of the year 2017: the Marsh frog!

2017-01-06

Amphibian and Reptile Consevation Group of MME announced the Amphibian of the Year 2017: the Marsh frog. Reasons for selections are simple: males turn stunning blue in mating season, which is a memorable experience for anyone who were lucky to observe them, meanwhile their decreasing numbers is a worrying fact.
