The race to get rainforest
     frogs into arks




By: Zachary Todd
• But a fungus dubbed "the amphibian smallpox" is making many
  species extinct.
• So when the fungus starts to kill the frogs it kills them fast says
  Edgardo Griffith.
• There's a species in Australia that produces a chemical called caerin
• What that chemical does is blocks HIV transmission to T-cells.
• Frogs have been around for thousands of years frogs are important to
  the human race because they have cured human diseases.
• In the past couple years scientists have said that frogs from around
  the world have decreased from up to 80% in some areas.
• Most of the frogs come from the cloudy mountain forests.
• When the scientists get them from the cloudy mountain forests they
  are not aloud to go back to there homes.
• The females would lay there eggs and they would always squirm
  through there eggs periodically.
• They would stay near there nest because if they didn’t fungus would
  take over the frogs nest.
