“I am shocked at the actual amount of damage bullfrogs are doing to not only the ecosystem but also to the California taxpayers who hold the burden of supporting the bullfrog importation industry.”
– Tommy Li, California

Bullfrog Action Group Meeting
August 18th, 2023
Here is the video of the August 18th, 2023 Bullfrog Action Group meeting.
During the meeting, we discussed and ranked the potential strategies offered by the California DFW Invasive Bullfrog & Turtle Working Group, which relate to education campaigns, localized eradication, ban on live bullfrog sales, ban on bullfrog imports, testing and monitoring, habitat improvement, and more. We discussed the importance of raising permit prices to deter bullfrog imports and improve funding for management programs; and we emphasize collaboration, research, enforcement, and partnerships to address bullfrog issues.
