As frog calls return in autumn and winter, frogs also face higher risks when crossing roads. Manyueyuan is an important habitat for several frog species, and during breeding season they move from the forest floor toward streams, with some routes crossing roads. The frog conservation program combines frog education with night observation, starting with frog calls and revealing small forest creatures that are easy to miss.

Around the visitor center, travelers can see road-kill education displays and cases under "Separate Ways with Frogs - Moving Forward Safely", learning how frog movements interact with roads and the threats wildlife faces. Weekend guided tours also include frog-call identification, picture-card activities and ecology talks on common frogs and their movements between forests and streams.

Those seeking a closer look can join "Expert-led Frog Night Walk", led by professional instructors to observe nighttime frogs and identify the area's ecology through calls and activity traces. Each session has 30 spots and requires online reservation.

Manyueyuan's forests and streams provide important habitats for frogs including the Swinhoe's frog, Stejneger's frog, Latouche's frog and Fujian big-headed frog. Some species enter breeding season in autumn and winter, making road crossings a survival challenge as they move between forests and streams.

The "Manyueyuan Frog Conservation Season" runs from October 19 to December 20. Online reservations for "Expert-led Frog Night Walk" open September 28. Activity details and available spots will be announced on the Manyueyuan National Forest Recreation Area Facebook page.
