Sloane’s Champions

Sloane’s Froglet is an endangered species with a very restricted distribution in NSW. The largest remaining populations in NSW occur in the Corowa and Thurgoona-Wirlinga areas.

The NSW Office of Environment and Heritage, Corowa District Landcare and Woolshed Thurgoona Landcare groups are coordinating a community-based Sloane’s Froglet survey and monitoring program: Sloane's Champions.

You can become a Sloane’s Champion using the Australian Museum’s FrogID app. Once you have the FrogID app, and have signed up to the Sloane’s Champions group on FrogID, all you do is record the frog chorus, submit the recording, and experts at the Australian Museum will identify the species present. The additional benefit of FrogID is that your survey results are automatically incorporated into the Sloane’s froglet monitoring program and a national database on Australian frogs.
