Hey guys, I have a location in south west sydney, where I collect inverts from, scorps spiders etc etc, I have been frequenting this area for quite a number of years.
Two years ago, I discovered a population of Litoria brevipalmata, I notified NPWS, and was told I was basically a tripper, as the species were not found this far south, and I had stuffed the ID up, I hadn't. So I notified The amphibian research centre, with no reply. So where to next, no one believes me, no one will come look for themselves, and a population of endangered frogs, that are living in a highly populated area, probably being trampled, attacked by dogs and cats or poached.
So what should I do, how do I make the appropriate authorities listen.
Please don't ask for the location, as I am not going to let the world know, or they will be gone forever.
Cheers
Rhys
