Natterjack conservation in Cumbria

"helping to secure the stronghold..."

The natterjack toad is not only the noisiest amphibian in Cumbria, but its rarest too.

Alarmingly, populations of this charismatic pioneer species have declined by an estimated 70 to 80 per cent within the last 100 years.

This three year project aims to reverse that decline in Cumbria – the county where half of the country’s natterjacks live.
