Amphibians like frogs and salamanders face mounting threats around the world, including habitat loss, climate change, deadly fungus and road mortality. Roads pose an immediate danger by cutting amphibians off from crucial migration corridors and putting them in the path of vehicles, which kill millions of animals annually.
