About
Speaker: Peter Hill, ARC Trust
Connecting the Dragons (CtD) is a huge project being undertaken by the Amphibian and Reptile Conservation organisation. It is a large-scale, four-year project across southern Wales that aims to restore and raise awareness of its declining and fragmented amphibian and reptile (herpetofauna) populations.
Amphibians and reptiles are the most threatened of all vertebrate groups, with more than 50% of species being threatened globally, and this is equally true in South Wales. Moreover, herpetofauna are often a low priority – even with other conservation NGOs. Getting local communities involved is of prime importance, and the ARC has set up projects with local Welsh communities including making ponds for newts and managing habitats for adders, grass snakes and sand lizards; the ARC also trains up volunteers to monitor and mentor.
