Professor Michael Mahony is a world renowned Conservation Biologist from The University of Newcastle, with decades of experience researching (and talking to) Australian frogs.

So far he has found and described twenty new frog species and contributed to the development of the first frog genome bank and cryopreservation method that may help bring frogs back from extinction.

He is a passionate educator and advocate for citizen science. In fact, one of his past students loved him so much that he named a newly discovered frog species after him called the “Mahony’s Toadlet”.
