Be a FrogWatch volunteer in your neighborhood

Would you like to help the environment? Do you know of a wetland near you with frogs calling? The Museum is looking for volunteers to help monitor frog populations in nearby wetlands during the spring and summer. The time commitment is 15 minutes one or two times per week, 1/2 hour after sunset. You do not have to be a frog expert as training is provided. Co-sponsored with Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo. Training is free for Yale Peabody Museum and Beardsley Zoo members and $10 for non-member families. There is a choice of two dates for the training workshops: Friday, March 21 from 7:00 to 9:00pm in the Hanson Center of Connecticut’s Beardsley Zoo. Friday, March 28 from 7:00 to 9:00pm in the Yale Peabody Museum auditorium. Pre-registration for either is necessary by emailing Jim Sirch james.sirch@yale.edu.
