Declining Amphibian Populations Task Force
The Declining Amphibian Populations Task Force (DAPTF) is an organization that monitors and studies the rapid decline of amphibian species worldwide. Amphibians like frogs, salamanders, and newts are sensitive indicators of environmental health. DAPTF gathers data, identifies causes such as habitat loss, pollution, disease, and climate change, and promotes conservation efforts to protect these vulnerable animals. Their work helps raise awareness about the importance of amphibians in ecosystems and supports strategies to prevent their extinction.
