Take action at your place and you can be recognised for your part in making Kuranda a Frog Friendly Neighbourhood.This involves looking after your local rainforest and stream, and taking action to improve it. Simple actions may include planting native rainforest trees, improving stream banks, and preventing run-off and changes to water flows. For an assessment of what could be done at your place, and help to get started, contact a friendly Kuranda Envirocare volunteer. Making ponds or dams does not help the endangered Kuranda frogs as they breed in flowing water and they will not use ponds. In fact, it may make things worse for them by assisting competitors (like toads) that love ponds and dams.
