    • About the presentation

    Humans live within an interdependent web of life. There are many things that we can do to help better understand the role we play in supporting all species of the planet to go through successful seasonal changes. What are some of the ways the Detroit Zoo and others are supporting that effort and—most importantly—what are some of the ways individuals can help? Frog watches are important because the health of amphibians is a very strong barometer of environmental quality.
