This study aims to assess the impact of wildfires on amphibian populations, enhance community awareness and capacity for fire management, and reduce local community reliance on forest fires for fodder production in Nepal. This project focuses on three amphibian species—Sphaerotheca swani (Dharan burrowing frog), Raorchestes annandalii (Bush frog), and Tylototriton himalayanus (Himalayan Salamander). 

Project is supported by Amphibian Survival Alliance (ASA).
