A Bolivian Water frog, labelled Romeo by his keepers, has apparently had his prayers answered (https://www.geek.com/news/romeo-finds-his-juliet-in-the-bolivian-wilderness-1769682/). This has all been done without his dating app on the web. Although there was a fear that he might be the last of his line, a female has been located in a stream and the hope is to introduce the pair with a view to generating froglets that can be used in reintroduction programmes. Amphibia, across the globe, are currently having a very tough time.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
