Use your webcam to save the insect around you

Around the world, many insects are in danger. Nearly one third of all frog and amphibian species risk extinction, thanks to habitat loss, pollution, pesticides, climate change and an insidious fungal infection that has spread to almost every corner of the globe. But there’s something you can do to help fight for frogs, by spreading the word through Save the Frogs’ new video and photo contest.So just use your webcam here to join this

How do you enter? Just make a video that mentions the website savethefrogs.com and upload it to YouTube. Prizes include a Save the Frogs t-shirt and other goodies — but this is really about extending awareness of frogs’ plight, so the prizes don’t really matter that much, right?

Save the Frogs founder Dr. Kerry Kriger has a few ideas of how to make a cool video that’s eligible for the contest:
1. Talk or sing about frogs; it can be funny or serious.
2. Interview people in the street about frogs.
3. Make an animated video or use high tech digital imagery.
4. Film yourself dancing around in a SAVE THE FROGS! t-shirt.
Waiting for your joining.
