But how do social media posts affect our perception of extinct animals? And, are posts about extinct amphibians unique in their retention?

In this episode I am joined by Susan Canavan, and we discuss her research into how social media posts affect our awareness of extinction. We discuss how social media users acted after reading a post about different extinct animals, and what role amphibians played in long term interest.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedThis week I am joined by Roland Knapp. Roland has studied Mountain yellow legged frogs in the Sierra Nevada for three decades. During the earliest days of his research, he witnessed the first massive amphibian die-offs in the US as a result of a new and lethal pathogen. That pathogen would come to be known as Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis or Bd for short. Moving forward, Roland's subsequent work over the next few decades would ultimately lead to a reintroduction plan for the species, -a plan made possible by the discovery of Bd resistant frogs! In this episode, we discuss the full story arc of Bd -from it's mysterious beginning, the severe devastation it has caused, and how the tide is turning in favor of a few frog species with some help from both nature and humans!
