Threats
- Inappropriate fire regimes
- Habitat modification (e.g. vegetation clearing, invasive weeds)
- Direct human impact/urbanisation/tourism
- Inappropriate catchment management, including degraded water quality
 2.Pseudophryne corroboree
Family: Myobatrachidae
Common name: Southern Corroboree Frog
The corroboree frog is one of Australias most critically endangered frog which has been brought back from the edge of extinction thanks to the active breeding program by legendary frog man, Gerry Marantelli and his team at the Amphibian Research Centre in Werribee Victoria.
Threats
- Disease/pathogens (e.g. chytrid fungus, viruses)
- Global warming and other climate changes
- Habitat modification (e.g. vegetation clearing, invasive weeds)
- Direct human impact/urbanisation/tourism
- Inappropriate catchment management, including degraded water quality
- Exotic predators (e.g. trout, Gambusia)
