Endangerment of amphibians

The amphibian population is rapidly depleting due to some factors such as the change in global temperature and the environment. More natural habitats are being converted and destroyed for man-made structures. With the rapid urbanizing world more factories are releasing more chemicals to the environment to produce more goods so as to keep up with the changing world and the increasing population. Another factor is that diseases and different new species are introduced causing some rare and endangered frogs to be eaten up or infected by diseases brought from a foreign environment. Furthermore, the characteristics and behavior of many amphibian species are putting their lives in grave dangers. Various ecological and human pressures on them caused such behavior over a long period of time. The pressure caused them to change in their survival habits to sustain the pressure.

Many biologists who study amphibian population declines did not see or looked into the evolutionary changes in the amphibians. Therefore, to understand the amphibians better, scientists and policy-makers must take into consider what are the ecological problems these amphibians are facing such as the evolutional changes over the time as well as the human’s impacts on them
