Minnesota and Eager Bio Student
So Nermit traveled to Minnesota where the News Frog said this whole
thing began. In 1995 students from the
New
Country School first discovered many cases of deformed frogs. There
he talked to a student who had found deformed frogs. He also wondered why
the frogs were deformed and disappearing. The student said “Pollution to
the environment like agricultural chemicals may be affecting frogs. The
chemicals used to make crops grow better can be dangerous to tadpoles and
adult frogs.”
