Informative piece from Canada TV on frog species going extinct, in rain forest as well as Canada. Loss of habitat, diseases, chemical overload from human sources all add up to extinction. When all the frogs are gone, what species is next to go extinct? Scientists try to save a few.

Part 2

1. Well, birds of all types would suffer....
Down here in SW Florida there are these little frogs, I'd guess they're no more than an inch long. Every once and a while I'll see a bird catch one (the frogs make this crazy screem). So ya, animals who eat frogs.

3. I hate hearing this. I adore frogs, and have many of them
on my patio, both real Cuban Tree Frogs, and patio kitch. They are amazing creatures.
