The EWT celebrated the 10th Leap Day for Frogs this year, which coincides with EWT’s 50th anniversary. To commemorate both milestones, we will share a fun frog fact each Friday throughout the year. Here is how our Leap Day celebrations went this year
The Vervet Monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus) has adapted to thrive in human-altered landscapes. However, this also means they face many risks from humans and their activities.
While Leap Day for Frogs does highlight the threats to these creatures, it also celebrates them and creates an appreciation for them, which is the first step towards recognising their importance.
The EWT’s Leap Day for Frogs campaign has been running for six years, with the 2020 iteration taking place during a Leap Year.
