The Spring Forward event offers a variety of activities for guests to join in and learn more about frogs, toads and salamanders. All activities will take place on Wednesday, March 9, from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. in Conservation Station at Rafiki’s Planet Watch. This year, children and families will make toad abodes for their backyards, listen to frog calls, spring like a frog, examine amphibian adaptations and meet some cool amphibians and their keepers on the stage. They’ll also learn about conservation actions that they can do to help amphibians survive for the future.</p> <p> </p>
