Hello, would like to contribute. Will be setting up a wood frog route this week and look for eggs and tadpoles in the coming weeks. If you need help reviewing, count me in also, just let me know.

We've learned a lot about the species now and I've put in for publication funding. I am hoping for two things from this group - photos and reviewers. I'd really like to replace the copyrighted photos in the document with public domain photos or drawings. This would allow us to eventually publish them through the Alaska Natural History Association who could potentially sell them in visitor centers around the state (and possibly as a fund-raiser for amphibian conservation, though I'm still trying to figure out how that could work). Photo or drawing credit will be noted for the photographer and/or agency if desired. These are the subjects needed: Wood frog eggs Wood frog tadpole Western toad eggs Spotted frog larvae Spotted frog eggs Spotted frog adult Spotted frog adult bottom Threat-displaying rough-skinned newt Rough-skinned newt larvae or eggs Northwestern salamander larvae Northwestern salamander eggs Long-toed salamander adult Red-legged frog adult Pacific chorus frog adult Additionally, two or three reviewers are needed before the final edits are completed. Please contact me if you are interested in helping out with this project, or would like more information. If you'd like to take a look at the flashcards, {Caution: this is a large file (4.7MB)} please see: http://www.nature.nps.gov/im/units/AKRO/Amphibians/Documents/final_amphi b_fcards2.pdf Sincerely, , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , Blain Anderson Trails/GIS Specialist National Park Service 240 West 5th Avenue Anchorage, Alaska 99501 907.644.3577 ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `
