Amphibian Conservation Needs Assessment Data

AArk Taxon Officers and others have held a number of national and regional meetings around the world to assist these regions to prioritize their local amphibian species for conservation planning programs. The resulting data resulting from these workshops is available on the Conservation Needs Assessment results page on the AArk portal. Our Conservation Needs Assessment process is outlined in a pdf file which is also available in Spanish.
