See separate web page for more information. This field training session will take place 8 p.m. - midnight at the Granite Rock Sand Quarry, on Highway 1 just north of Santa Cruz. Participants will work with one of two instructors- Galen Rathbun or Norman Scott - who will demonstrate capturing, handling, sexing, and measuring of adult frogs and PIT tagging techniques. Participants will gain first hand experience in aquatic survey methodologies at a site with red-legged frogs. Please read the downloadable document "Please read..." at the bottom of this webpage before attending this session: you will need specific types of equipment to participate.
