Help Save the Yellow-Legged Frogs

Please send the letter at the bottom of this page!

Yellow Legged FrogThe Mountain Yellow-Legged Frogs were once the most abundant frogs in California, but have disappeared from over 90% of the lakes they once inhabited, in large part due to the introduction of non-native trout, which are voracious predators of tadpoles.

The California Department of Fish & Game is currently deciding whether to continue their decades old trout stocking program.

Highly-respected scientific research has shown that endangered frog populations quickly recover in the absence of trout. However, many pro-fishing organizations oppose plans to discontinue stocking non-native fish in California's lakes and streams, so we need your help to make sure the Department decides in favor of protecting threatened frog species.

Help us save the Yellow-legged Frogs by ensuring they have habitat free of predatory non-native fish.

Please send the letter below to the Department of Fish & Game. They are currently inviting comments from the public as part of an Environmental Impact Report, but the comment period is only open through November 30th. Please take action!
