Training: Amphibian Egg Mass Training

  • Metro Regional Center 600 Northeast Grand Avenue Portland, OR, 97232 United States (map)

This is one of three January trainings which will prepare volunteers to count frog and salamander egg masses in parks and natural areas. Monitoring native amphibian species helps measure overall wetland health and the extent to which regional enhancement efforts are helping wildlife thrive.

After completing one training, volunteers typically contribute a total 12-25 volunteer hours by completing four surveys over the course of three months (late January through March). Sponsored by Clean Water Services, Metro, Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District and The Wetlands Conservancy. More information and registration (required) from Clean Water Services; background info on the Tree for All blog, On The Ground
