Manchester Museum is home to one of the most stunning vivarium exhibits in the world. Known as The Vivarium, this section of the museum houses its amphibian collection, which includes critically endangered Atelopus varius, several Cruziohyla species, Agalychnis lemur, and many more. With a focus on research, education, and conservation, The Vivarium engages the needs of endangered amphibians at a global level.
This week I am joined by Acting Curator, Matthew O'Donnell and we discuss some of the more sensitive species that he works with at The Vivarium. We talk about the Museum's Ateltopus varius conservation project, the history of the Museum's amphibian collection, and the day to day activities that go on behind the scenes. Matthew also shares some insights into what it takes to care for some of the more fragile species of tree frogs that call The Vivarium their home.
