The dangers of frogspawn-swapping
Debs on Mar 8th 2008
There's an interesting and timely piece of frog news on the BBC News Website today warning would-be frog conservationists about the dangers of a decades old do-it-yourself method of rehousing frogs by moving frogspawn from pond to pond...
Conservationists are urging people not to carry out "frogspawn-swapping" this spring because of problems they say it can create for the pond environment.
Wildlife-lovers in the UK often donate frogspawn from their ponds to others to give frogs a potential new home.
But the Froglife charity said this could lead to the spread of invasive plants and harmful diseases.
