Notice board:

A few last minute donations have been transferred to our Save Our Frogs Fund account before the tax year closes - but we have not received emails with address details for these donations! We MUST have an email from you to provide your name and address so that we can send you a receipt for your tax records. Without a receipt, your donation will NOT be considered tax deductable if you get audited. If you have recently made a donation by direct deposit, please contact us.

Do you have a link to us from your website or include our web address in your group's newsletter? Please check what url you are using for us. Several sites and publications have recently listed our web address as: www.fdrproject.org
This is an old address and is about to expire.
Our CORRECT web address is: www.fdrproject.org.au
Please update your links so that visitors can still reach our site!

May 30th: Until sufficient support starts coming in, our rescue activity is suspended. However, if you find a sick or injured frog, you should still CONTACT US to find out where you can bring this frog. Please do NOT phone your local wildlife rescue organisation. These animals require special handling, isolation, and intensive disinfection procedures involving very expensive chemicals. Wildlife carers are not setup to identify or handle the diseases we're seeing in this region's frogs. Don't forget to ALWAYS use gloves or a plastic bag over your hands to pick up frogs.

Please note: if you are outside FNQ and are contacting us to do a long-distance diagnosis, please refer to our Symptoms of a sick frog page before you pick up that phone!

If you are presently organising an event for us or are considering sponsorship of all the other frog conservation measures our group does, please READ THIS PAGE.

Have you sent us an email or snail mail that bounced?
Do you have our correct details?

We relocated before Christmas and everything changed.
We are also forced to change our email address regularly because of the volume of nasty spam that bombards us as soon as our address has started circulating for awhile. Visit our Contact page for all the new details.

A big thank you also to Natural Resource Assessments
(our first and still only Gold business sponsor) for renewing their sponsorship this year! Also thanks to Edge Hill State School and the customers of IGA Pease Street.

Are you receiving nuisance emails that have our domain name as the sender? We can assure you, they are not from us. Now that we have a broadband account, all emails from our organisation will be from the Westnet domain. Any email you receive with our fdrproject.org or fdrproject.org.au domain has been "spoofed" by one of those rotten, malicious hackers out there who have nothing better to do with their talents than cost others time and money!
