À propos de cet audio

In this episode of Protect The World, I speak with Gina Della Togna – executive director of the Amphibian Survival Alliance (ASA). Joining me from Panama, Gina discusses the ASA's work as a global coalition dedicated to the long-term protection of the world's amphibians. Consisting of frogs, toads, salamanders and caecilians – amphibians are the most threatened vertebrate animals on the planet, and the combined impacts of habitat destruction, climate change and infectious disease are decimating populations across the world. However, thanks to the work of Gina and her team, a number of species have quite literally been brought back from the brink of extinction. Gina is one of those unique conservationists who is simultaneously a brilliant researcher, a clever communicator and an inspiring leader – and I hope she encourages you to get to know the amphibians found in your corner of the world. As always, half the money that came into the Patreon this month was donated directly to the Amphibian Survival Alliance. This money will go towards providing hardworking researchers with the resources required to continue their species-saving work. You can donate directly to the Amphibian Survival Alliance by visiting amphibians.org, and if you'd like to help me give more money to more amazing NGOs in the future, please consider signing up to the Patreon for as little as $5 a month at patreon.com/brodiehopkinsmedia You can follow the Amphibian Survival Alliance on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, and you can also follow the rest of my own work on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.
