Stephanie Reaves, one of our own graphic designers, joined our Field Conservation team near Leadville to document this year's boreal toad tadpole release firsthand, and what she experienced brought our conservation mission into focus in a whole new way. "Seeing the connection between the work happening in our toad barn and the efforts taking place in the field reinforced that every step [...] plays an important role in supporting the recovery of an endangered species." From behind the scenes animal management to the moment 3,500 tadpoles met their new alpine home, Stephanie wrote about what it meant to see conservation not just from behind a screen, but up close and personal. 🏔️🐸 Read her full field day story through the link in bio. #BorealToad #TeamToad #FieldConservation #DenverZooConservationAlliance #Colorado #SavingWildlifeTogether #BehindTheScenes
