Western Leopard Toads are leaping

18 August 2015

Every year, usually in August, Cape Town slows down to assist Western Leopard Toads (WLT: Amietophrynus pantherinus) across the roads. This year, members of the MeaseyLab took time out of their evenings to help toads across the road. The WLT has been a past research favourite, and is currently part of current research projects by Mac and Zishan. Giovanni was leading the way this year as he's interested in using any casualties for comparison with the invasive Guttural Toad.

Thanks to all for turning out, and thanks to Sarah Davies for this image of Alex capturing a shot of an old 'gal.
