• Amphibian Conservation Needs Assessment Workshop
Highlighted Activity
CBSG Japan held an Amphibian Conservation Needs Assessment workshop in January 2011 with the cooperation of AArk, and Asa Zoo, to review the need for ex situ conservation and prioritize Japanese
species. Participants discussed and reviewed the current situation of each amphibian species (24 Caudata and 38 Anura), categorized them based on AArk format assessment, and examined the adequacy of the ex situ conservation programs.
CBSG Japan marked its 15th anniversary this year. The network has held several activities, including PHVA workshops under the support of CBSG Headquarters. We are exploring ways to structure CBSG Japan to work more actively. We hope to learn from other regional networks and enhance the relationship with them to cooperate for the further development of CBSG.
