Help raise awareness about Britain’s three species of extinct frogs – the Agile Frog, the Moor Frog, and the European Tree Frog!

100% of proceeds go towards supporting the rewilding project. The project is aiming to reintroduce each of these species back to the UK after several hundred years!

Each tote bag is 100% vegan cotton, and organic. The bag features the three frogs, hand designed by Mikey McGrath – an extremely talented artist in Cheshire.

The Agile Frog

The Agile Frog is a woodland species, becoming specifically tied to open, oak-hazel woodland in the northern edge of its range in Sweden. It needs fairly nutrient poor, semi-permanent and fish free ponds to deposit its eggs. It breeds the earliest of the brown frogs, while ice is still on the ground which gives it a specific competitive advantage over the other two species.

The Moor Frog

The Moor Frog is strongly associated with peaty habitats in north-western Europe, such as raised bogs, large mires and oligotrophic fens. It is often found in open habitats dominated by heather and purple moor grass, with a humid and dense microclimate. Breeding takes place in fish-free, shallow, extensive wetlands, where the males often turn a lavender blue for a few days. The Moor Frog’s habitat has been found to be facilitated by the Eurasian beaver in certain areas.

The European Tree Frog

The tree frog is a specialist of warm, lowland landscapes with abundant ponds and scrubby vegetation. In northern Europe, it is found in open and often surprisingly dry habitats, such as bramble scrub and even dunes. The eggs are laid in shallow, fish-free ponds with fairly dense emergent plants. Breeding begins in late spring which is later than Britain’s brown frogs and continues into early summer. By day, individuals are often basking among vegetation; at night, males gather in choruses, producing a loud, distinctive call that carries across the landscape for over a mile.
