Frog Identification and Field Practice: Frog Watch at Brevard Zoo

Space Coast Audubon is joining forces with the Brevard Zoo to offer a private group FrogWatch training program and field practice. The class will be held after hours in the education center, with field practice inside the Zoo property. A $5.00 donation (cash only – collected at the door) is required to cover cost of materials. Each participant will receive a flashdrive with the frog calls. **** Materials must be ordered in advance, so please only sign up if you can definitely attend. You will be responsible to cover the $5 fee if you cancel less than 72 hours from the class start time.****

FrogWatch USA is a citizen science program established in 1998 to provide individuals, groups and families with opportunities to learn about wetlands in their communities by reporting on the calls of local frogs and toads. Through Brevard Zoo’s FrogWatch USA training program, trained individuals will be able to listen for frogs and toads during evenings and submit their observations to a national online database. **Check in will begin at 5:45 at the EdZOOcation gate north of the zoo’s main entrance.** The training will start at 6:00 pm, and will conclude with an immersive in the field practice in the Brevard Zoo Wetlands classroom, a pavilion overlooking Brevard Zoo’s restored wetlands habitat.

Please Bring: $5 cash donation, refillable water bottle, bug spray, and wear shoes that can get wet or muddy.

Looking forward to sharing another tool for contributing to Community Science data.
