In early spring, frogs and salamanders awake from their winter dormancy to take part in an incredible migration to vernal pools. The lives of these native amphibians, and other creatures, are closely linked to vernal pools, temporary bodies of water created by snow melt and rain. Learn how Mass Audubon has restored and created vernal pools in the midst of habitat loss and climate change, and how you can get involved too.
