No, i remember getting it on email a few years back, so i found it on the net.
That's one way to get a Jungle into WA.
Unfortunately Queensland does not have an organisation that will take displaced frogs and re-home them. So in the future, should it happen again, the best I could suggest is to get in touch with a Wildlife Carer or contact JCU and ask to speak to one of their frog experts. They have been at the forefront of research on the frog chytrid fungus and may be able to help.
You are reading way too much into a few simple sentences. With respect to the genetics I explained why it was “a minor concern”. I used the past tense “have been” in referring to JCU as I have not followed their research in recent years. The term “at the forefront of” does not exclude others from also being at the forefront, as well, which is why I used that particular phrase. There is no way I would use the term “leader”, as explained in the last paragraph....
JCU at the forefront of chytrid research in Australia.... I am sure JCU has done plenty of work, and found plenty of stuff but can you show they are truly the leaders in Australia. Plenty of work has come out of Newcastle and Sydney Universities as well.
Perhaps I read to much into because you used the word forefront, which really does mean leader or most important person in regard to whatever it is describing. Thus it does exclude other people who are not collaborating in equal share with anyone you call at the forefront from being at the forefront.You are reading way too much into a few simple sentences.
