Presenter: Brett Thelen, Harris Center for Conservation Education
Every year, on the first warm, rainy nights of spring, thousands of salamanders and frogs migrate to vernal pools and other wetlands to breed in a phenomenon known as "Big Night." Sadly, many are killed when they must cross busy roads. Join longtime Salamander Crossing Brigade coordinator Brett Amy Thelen to discover the magic of Big Night -- and to learn how community members in southwestern New Hampshire and beyond are coming together to help spring-migrating amphibians survive the most dangerous journey of their lives.
