Rescuing Frogs

• Only attempt a rescue of a frog if it is suffering from obvious signs of injury or disease.
• Always wet your hands with water before attempting to handle a frog.
• With your wet hands, gently place the frog into a waterproof container.
• Pour a few drops of water on to its skin so that it does not dry out. 
• Cover the container and take to a wildlife carer or vet.
• Always rehabilitate frogs back to the area where they were found, ideally on a warm, wet evening.
