Frogspawn
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what her policy is on measures to protect the habitat of frogspawn.
- Answer
-
Frogs make use of a wide range of waterbodies for spawning. Between 2005 and 2010 agri-environment schemes provided over £7.5 million for a range of different pond creation and restoration schemes on farmland. The Million Ponds Project co-ordinated by Pond Conservation in association with Amphibian and Reptile Conservation is creating 5,000 ponds between 2008 and 2012, with 1,429 clean water ponds created by 2010.
