Climate change emerges as the major driver of amphibian declines globally, according to watershed paper published in nature_the_journal - and led by Re:wild. 🐸 Examining two decades of worldwide data, this assessment highlights climate change as a major threat to frogs, salamanders, and caecilians. The comprehensive evaluation, involving over 1,000 experts and spanning more than 8,000 amphibian species (including 2,286 newly assessed species), underscores that two out of every five amphibians face the risk of extinction as the result primarily of climate change, habitat destruction, overexploitation, and disease. Amphibians are exceptionally vulnerable to environmental changes, making climate change a particularly alarming concern. This paper, an update to the 2004 landmark study, that marked the first Global Amphibian Assessment for the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, sheds light on the ongoing amphibian crisis and provides a crucial foundation for monitoring trends and measu...
