"We know very well that the indigenous communities of the rivers are the people that truly take care of the Amazon. Project Amazonas makes a valuable contribution that needs to be continued."
Vicenti Vela, Medical StudentProject Amazonas frogs featured on 2010 calendar!
A large format 2010 frog calendar by photographer Michael Turco features some of the frogs of the Project Amazonas field stations. A pair of pygmy hatchet-faced treefrogs and a Duellman's poison frog were photographed at the Madre Selva Biological Station in Loreto, Peru. Another frog featured on the calendar - the Amazon leaf frog - also occurs at the field station, but was not photographed there. The calendar can be viewed at http://www.amazon.com/Amazing-Frogs-Sound-2010-Calendar/dp/1604347864.
