From listening out for the sweet songs of a healthy frog pond, to being woken up in the middle of the night by the screeches of an unwelcome guest, this week we have stories about animal sounds and interactions with nature, for better or worse!

🐍  Fact Check: The intro to this episode includes a line about carpet snake bites never healing. We've done some research and we're not sure that's 100% true. Probably best to steer clear of them anyway though! 🐍

When The Frogs Go Silent by Jacinta Bowler

Frogs have been suffering through their own pandemic. In the last few months, scientists have been rushing to understand a huge mass die off of green tree frogs. Jacinta investigates what’s happening, how it all started and how we can help all help by going for a walk without headphones.

Producer: Jacinta Bowler
