Rare Southern Toadlet


I found this picture on the Australian site. Isn't it so cute? Melbourne has been doing a frog census. I just love us. We care so much about our wildlife. It belongs so much to us, so it's so unusual when we start to destroy our environment and our wild life. We go to extraordinary lengths to fins out what we have around us so we can live with it. Like the giant inch ants which have decided to come and live in Adelaide. We hate them because they bite and hurt and make your feet swell up, but we have been trying to find the work around. At least they are lone foragers! They just pop up anywhere they want. So...Melbourne has found this little rare toadlet and the endangered Growling Grass Frog. 900 volunteers helped with the census and there's a great picture on this news story:
