Over the past four weeks our wonderful keeper team have been out most evenings braving the elements to assist in Toad Patrol over at Alverstone 🐸💚

Every year hundreds of toads migrate across the road to the local pond to breed.  They usually move on warm, wet evenings, so when the temperature is right our keepers go along for a few hours to patrol the area.

All of our animal care team have been involved, alongside a couple of members of the Froglife team, taking it in turns to patrol the road and ensuring the toads cross safely.

There can be up to 400 toads during the breeding period and we can now rest easy knowing these little guys have made it safely to the other side.

Great effort team 🙌🐸💚
