The Animals

All wildlife species are important, and unfortunately many of them need help from us. Despite many people loving them, amphibians and reptiles do tend to be among the more forgotten about creatures in terms of funding, popularity and conservation efforts.

Froglife is dedicated to raising the profile of these fascinating and magical animals and fighting for their protection. You can find our more about what we’re doing to help
here >>>.

Amphibians - frogs, toads and newts - are amazing little animals that start life as eggs in the water and metamorphosise into adults that can survive on land. Reptiles - snakes and lizards - are secretive and scaly creatures, getting their energy from basking in the sun. Both amphibians and reptiles hide away over winter and start to re-emerge in spring.

You can find out more about the thirteen different species of amphibians and reptiles that you could find in the UK on these pages. Some of them could be spotted in your garden or local park, and some of them much more rare.  If you are lucky enough to spot any of these creatures, you can tell us about it here >>>.
