Join us for an in-person watch party for the next Calling Frog Survey training on January 31, 2026 from 1:00 pm. – 5:00 p.m. at the LaSalle County Extension Office. The Calling Frog Survey is a citizen science project that invites community members to learn how to identify frog calls and contribute valuable data to amphibian conservation efforts. Before the Calling Frog Survey began, little was known about the distribution and status of amphibians in our region. Now the survey is providing important information to scientists and land managers who can use the data to conduct management and research that benefits amphibian populations. Participants will learn the unique calls of the 13 species of frogs and toads found in the Chicago wilderness region. A planning meeting to discuss 2026 routes will immediately follow the training.
