Lémaniques no. 134 - Amphibians and reptiles of the Lake Geneva region: 78% of threatened species!

From the Common Natterjack to the Viperine Snake and the rare Green Treefrog, this panorama provides an alarming but fascinating overview of the local herpetofauna. You'll discover why these species are excellent indicators of the quality of natural environments, how riverbank development affects their survival, and what is being done to protect them.
