Saving Frogs from the Chytrid Fungus [Ecochat]

Frogs & other amphibians are considered the most threatened land animals on Earth. We interview Dr. Nicholas Wu to discuss the global decline of frogs and the threats they're facing, including pollution and climate change. In particular, we focus on the Chytrid fungus, which is the world's most devastating pathogen on biodiversity, affecting over 500 species of frogs.
