The Great Amphibian Migration

  • Tinicum Conservancy 965 River Road Erwinna, PA, 18920 United States (map)

It only happens once a year. All across the northeastern United States, all manner of local amphibians—including spotted salamanders, wood frogs, and spring peepers—make the long and arduous journey from their winter burrows to their ancestral breeding pools.  

Unfortunately, the trek can be quite treacherous, especially when it involves crossing paths with a car, and that’s exactly the situation in our own neck of the woods, where a major amphibian migration occurs every year at Perry Auger Road.

The good news is that you can help these valuable and vulnerable critters to safely cross the road during their night-time journey! Join local herpetologist Kyle Loucks for an online presentation about these beautiful creatures and the ways we can make their journey safer, all in preparation for a future event, where we’ll gather at Perry Auger when the nighttime migration begins.
