Western Toad - Gwaii Haanas

Annual visual surveys are used to assess annual occupancy of breeding western toads at 10 known breeding ponds. Because of their reliance on wetland habitat for breeding, western toads are used as a measure of aquatic ecosystem health. The western toad is the only amphibian native to Haida Gwaiii and was designated as a species of special concern by COSEWIC in 2002.
