We conducted a health survey of amphibians in the adjacent to Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) to document current disease presence inside RMNP and identify disease outside RMNP with the potential to spread to the Park’s amphibians. Amphibians from five sites within RMNP and seven sites within 60 km of Park boundaries were collected and examined…
