Amphibians the world over are disappearing and, here in Far North Queensland, we are one of the world's "hot spots" for frog decline with several high-altitude species already feared extinct. On the coastal lowlands, species previously thought to be very common and secure are also losing ground rapidly. This is what is meant by 'frog decline' and it can apply to any frog species - not just those which are already classified as 'endangered' or 'rare'.
Frogsafe is based at Mission Beach. we assist incoming frogs from Townsville northwards plus assist holders of sick and injured frogs around the country using long-distance consults. |

Regional focusThe Cassowary Coast is named after the endangered flightless bird which can still be seen in the rainforest around the Mission Beach area. The high rainfall and humidity means this is one of the wettest and greenest places in Australia. Visitors are attracted to the region's offshore islands, quiet beachside villages and rainforest-covered mountains. Recent activities
