Promote the preservation of natural habitats for wildlife.
Learn about wildlife, so you can enjoy the out-of-doors without accidentally harming plants or animals.
Limit your use of chemicals such as pesticides and weed killers.
Dispose of hazardous wastes safely. Don't dump them into your communities water system--a frog's home is downstream.
Make sure your air conditioner doesn't leak freon. When released, this gas damages the ozone layer.
Please don't dump unwanted pet fishes, turtles, or frogs in local ponds. They can carry disease or prey on native species.
Write your local representatives and tell them not to weaken the Endangered Species Act.
Participate in a frog census. It's fun and you'll help scientists see how frogs are faring.
