We have had a busy few days with the Toads on Roads campaign at work. The migrating toads have to cross a busy stretch of road on their way to the spawning site and then again on the way back from spawning. It can be carnage so we have been on duty on wet mild evenings with high visability jackets, gloves torches and buckets in hand. So far we have assisted 633 individual animals on our site. Here`s a few snaps taken the other night.
