Aren't you afraid that they will get into your house?
"No, I said, I am not afraid that they will get into the house. Frog populations are declining. Most of these tadpoles won't survive."
Of course I had to check
to make sure that I was not exaggerating
so I looked on Frogwatch USA http://www.nwf.org/frogwatchUSA/ .
I quote........."Amphibians, such as frogs and toads, have porous skin that makes them especially sensitive to changes in their environment."
Are frog populations in Florida declining?
I would guess yes and will check info soon but first at http://www.naturewatch.ca/english/select_province.html
you'll see that they are concerned in Canada. "Worldwide, many species are declining in numbers or have recently become extinct. Monitoring frog and toad populations is one way to check the health of wetland areas. Frogs and toads can be used as indicator species, because they are vulnerable to changes in the atmosphere, the land, or the water."
