The Frogs of North West NSW are colourful, loud and<br />

often display very unusual habits. Frogs however are<br />

under threat from Chytrid Fungus, habitat loss and<br />

other pressures. Frog Croaker is an interactive<br />

reference tool which helps the user learn about these<br />

wonderful creatures.<br />

Frog Croaker catalogues all 29 species of frogs in<br />

North west NSW. The geo-location technology<br />

simplifies identification by locating the user in the<br />

catchment then matching that location with the<br />

home range of different frog species.<br />
