Fungus Wiping Out Frogs: Innovative "Frog Saunas" Offer Hope for Survival
Frog populations worldwide are being decimated by the chytrid fungus, which is responsible for the decline and extinction of many species. Scientists have developed "frog saunas," simple heated structures that allow frogs to warm up and combat the infection. Studies show that this method can help infected frogs recover faster and even develop resis...
