According to the @IUCNRedList of Threatened Species, amphibians are the most #threatened animal group, with 33 species currently listed as #Extinct, 587 as #CriticallyEndangered, 965 as #Endangered, 650 as #Vulnerable, and 375 as #NearThreatened.
With over 40% of all amphibian species threatened with extinction, many people and organisations around the world dedicate their lives to protect them.
The Amphibian Survival Alliance (ASA) @amphibiansorg is a global alliance of more than 50 organisations dedicated to developing a better world for amphibians through coordinated conservation action.
ASA works with key coordinating bodies (@ASG_IUCN Amphibian Specialist Group and @amphibianark) in global #amphibian #conservation to achieve a shared Vision: "Amphibians thriving in nature".
