Re: Mystery virus ravages UK frogs (Dale)

Actually, Dale, that last article (of the three) puts forth a supportable connection between amphibian decline and abnormal development and increased exposure to UV-B (i.e. ozone related), NOT global warming. If you read the article, the experimental approach and conclusions drawn both seem to be sound enough to justify some concern, IMHO.
The good news is that they say the decline is slowing and that the worst seems to be over. Wonder if the timing is related to the CFC restrictions.
