Our region is home to more than 20 species of frogs.
Some species are commonly seen, others are rare, and some are critically endangered. 

A recent event in Merimbula showcased some the wonder and weirdness of Australia's frogs. Harrison Warne and Jack Breedon presented their 30 minute Life in the Wet: A frogumentary film to an appreciative audience at the Merimbula Wharf Aquarium & Restaurant.

Harrison has been a long-term contributor to the Atlas of Life, and it is a privilege to be part of his continuing journey into wildlife photography and documentary making.

To learn more about their film-making in Queensland's Wet Tropics, or to chat with Harrison and Jack, visit their Facebook page
