Saving Our Wetland Communities One Pool at a Time: The Spadefoot Toad and Wetland Restoration Project
We hope you'll join us for FACES' annual meeting on
Thursday, July 31st at 7:30 pm at the Falmouth Arts Center (137 Gifford
Street). Ian Ives, the Director at Mass Audubon’s Long Pasture, Ashumet and
Skunknett River Wildlife Sanctuaries on Cape Cod, will be our featured speaker,
and he'll be talking about spadefoot toads and wetland restoration. The eastern
spadefoot toad is the rarest frog species in Massachusetts; its status in the
state is listed as “threatened”. Ian will explore the secret life history of
this elusive and little known species and discuss a reintroduction project
aimed at protecting the eastern spadefoot toad population on Cape Cod. Refreshments will be served. Please join us for what promises to be an informative and dynamic evening!
