SUNY ESF Researchers Focus on Tanzanian Toads

A species of tiny toads, which quickly became extinct in the wild after it was discovered in Tanzania, is thriving in a laboratory at the SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF). Scientists at the college are studying the Kihansi spray toads in an effort to find ways to safely reintroduce the animals to the Kihansi River Gorge in southeastern Tanzania.

Their story was featured by National Geographic in July 2011. Check it out.
