Long Beach Aquarium Aids Threatened California Frog

Biologists at the Aquarium of the Pacific are working to restore the critically endangered mountain yellow-legged frog by breeding and releasing over 1,000 individuals into their native mountain habitats. Since 2021, they have raised frogs from tadpoles, including survivors from wildfire-affected areas, with support from conservation agencies. The primary focus is on preventing extinction by addressing threats such as habitat loss, disease, and the chytrid fungus, which poses a significant risk to amphibians worldwide.
