Finally --- we are embarking on a research project with the Vet School at the Univ of QLD to investigate why QLD frogs are getting cancer. So far, six different cancers have been identified in our frogs and we need to know why this is happening. This two year project is an important step forward in documenting this disaster for a global audience. BUT there are two pre-requisites for us to participate: the first is that we cannot setup properly in our current location. We MUST find a suitable house to rent urgently. Remember homeowners - we are not commercial so there are no signs out front and few visitors. The second is that a LOT of funding will need to be secured to cover the broad range of investigative techniques. While we are applying for grants, it takes six months to a year before the money is available and that is only if you beat out all the hundreds of other applicants. We will need to raise funding up front to cover the immediate expenses. If you are looking for a worthwhile project to donate to, please consider us!
