Despite this, many South African frog species are being threatened or have become extinct. On Saturday, 24 September, Crocworld Conservation Centre will welcome a specialist on amphibians from the Endangered Wildlife Trust to discuss 10 years of frog conservation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur second instalment of monthly conservation talks is set to be a impactful one as we welcome Dr Jeanne Tarrant, manager of the Endangered Wildlife Trust\u2019s (EWT) Threatened Amphibian Programme,\u201d said Crocworld\u2019s Reptile Curator, Wade Kilian. \u201cShe will be joining us to give invaluable insight into the plight of our country\u2019s amphibian residents and their conservation over the past decade.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1973, the EWT is one of South Africa\u2019s most reputable conservation non-profit organisations. The EWT is dedicated to conserving threatened species and ecosystems in southern and East Africa for the benefit of all people. This is achieved by implementing target-driven research and conservation action programmes, implementing projects that address threats facing species, and supporting sustainable natural resource management.<\/p>\n<p>The talk will also be accompanied by a delicious breakfast served by the team at The Fish Eagle Caf\u00e9 based within Crocworld Conservation Centre. Aside from great breakfasts, the Fish Eagle Caf\u00e9 is also running a Spring Schnitzel Special which includes a 200-gram chicken schnitzel topped with mushroom or cheese sauce served with chips or salad complemented with a can Liquifruit at R89.<\/p>\n<p>Crocworld September Talk Details<br \/>Date: Saturday, 24 September at 9am<br \/>Venue: The Fish Eagle Caf\u00e9 at Crocworld Conservation Centre<br \/>Cost: R80pp including breakfast<br \/>Bookings: 039 976 1103<\/p>\n<p>For more on Crocworld and its events, visit www.crocworld.co.za, \u2018Crocworld Conservation Centre\u2019 on Facebook or call 039 976 1103.
