This directory includes amphibian husbandry experts in a wide range of fields related to captive programs. It is intended to benefit anyone who is involved with conservation programs for captive amphibians. These experts have generously offered their time to help with advice relating to amphibian husbandry.
Please note: If you are not directly involved with captive conservation programs for amphibians, we ask that you consider searching for any information you need on our web site, or using an internet search engine rather than contacting the people below.

Please consider using these other resources to find the help you need: Amphibian Husbandry, Chytrid Fungus, AArk Documents, Amphibians on the Web.
