Froglife: Coalface To Wildspace Project
"We’ll create and restore 60 ponds as well as creating habitats on the land that will support our reptiles and amphibians. The new and restored ponds will be connected by wildlife corridors, stepping stones of wildlife friendly habitats, that will enable wildlife to move safely around the region."

#UK - How #WildlifeCorridors Are Helping Animals Survive In #Urban Areas

By Sarah Whitmore / 20 May 2025

Excerpt: "How animals actually use these corridors

"Let’s take #hedgehogs. Urban hedgehog populations are declining sharply — partly because their ability to roam has been limited by garden fences, walls, and roads. A hedgehog might need to travel over a kilometre in a single night to find enough food and a mate. The Hedgehog Street campaign has shown that something as simple as a 13 cm hole in a garden fence can turn a neighbourhood into a habitat network.

"#Bats, which are legally protected in the UK, rely on uninterrupted linear features like tree rows and waterways to navigate. When gaps appear in these features — from tree removal, #LightPollution, or #development — their movement is disrupted. Creating corridors that link #roosting sites with feeding grounds can dramatically increase their chances of survival.

"#Amphibians, especially species like common toads, face seasonal danger when crossing roads to reach breeding ponds. #UnderRoadTunnels and #AmphibianFriendly #drainage routes, used in projects supported by organisations like #Froglife, have proven successful at reducing #roadkill and supporting local populations.

"#Pollinators like #bees and #butterflies also benefit immensely from corridors. Isolated #wildflower patches can’t support long-distance foraging. But when these patches are linked — even via #roadside verges or #SchoolGardens — insects can move more freely and establish healthier, more resilient populations."

Oh no not another toad closure ('boom boom' Bazil Brush)

One of if the best reasons I've heard for one.

Have you seen a blue frog before? 🐸🩵

This magnificent tree frog (Litoria splendida) with a rare mutation was recently discovered by Australian Wildlife Conservancy ecologists in Western Australia's Kimberley region.

Learn how this mutation occurs and why it turns frogs blue… https://ausgeo.co/bluefrog

Sometimes frog and toad tadpoles have a genetic abnormality which means that they will remain as tadpoles for their whole lives. If a tadpole lacks the gene which produces the growth hormone thyroxine they will be unable to metamorphose into froglets or toadlets.
