Course Description:
Amphibians are undergoing a dramatic and rapid global decline due to a variety of factors including habitat degradation and destruction, over-exploitation, disease, and climate change. This seminar and discussion course will explore the ecology of amphibians, the causes and implications of their decline, and amphibian-focused conservation efforts. Students will gain experience reading, evaluating, presenting, and discussing peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, government documents, and non-government organization publications. |
