Mapping Climate Refuges to Save Panama's Harlequin Toads
Original: Mapping Climate Refuges to Give Panama’s Harlequin Toads a Second Chance
Researchers are mapping climate refuges in Panama as part of efforts to give harlequin toads a second chance. The critically endangered amphibians, once abundant across Central America, have been decimated by disease and habitat loss, and identifying cooler, wetter refuges could help conservationists protect the places where surviving populations can endure as conditions change.
Why now: New conservation research offers hope for a critically endangered species threatened by climate change and disease.
