Salamander Crossing in Amherst

Every year, salamanders visit vernal pools to spawn and lay their eggs. To reach these springtime pools, they may have to cross busy streets and risk getting run over. To make sure these animals make it safely to their destination, volunteers will lend a hand. I have never attended one of the volunteer bucket brigade events, but I will one of these days. Is this something that would interest you? There are instructions on the webpage if you want to volunteer!
