Disease

Reporting incidences of disease

In order to collect data about amphibian diseases, and therefore contribute to vital research, we're asking anyone who has witnessed an outbreak of ranavirus to please fill in a questionnaire.

Why do I need to fill in the form?

The only way we can hear about new cases of disease is if you let us know. You're data provides crucial evidence for how the disease is spreading.

Do you need my contact details?

If you don't want to submit your contact details you don't have to but you will need to include your postcode, as without this the record is virtually useless. If you do include your contact details we will not pass these on to third parties; if you would prefer them not to be passed on to our research partners with the rest of the information, please tick the box at the end of the form.

What happens after I submit the data?

The information feeds through to our research partners who use it to find out more about the disease. If you have any questions regarding the outbreak please contact us directly rather than including them on the form as you will get a much quicker response. We will try to keep you up to date with current findings and may get in touch if a sample is required for analysis and. Find out more about submitting a sample.

I've found dead frogs but they don't fit with the symptoms for ranavirus, should I fill in the form anyway?

No. This form is specifically to record incidences of ranavirus. If you've found frogs with other symptoms or at other times of year please see our information about common causes of amphibian deaths.
