Early each spring Calling Amphibian Monitoring Project (CAMP) volunteers can be found along the sides of New Jersey roadways in the dark listening for the calls of toads and frogs. Volunteers who take part in the project survey a 15-mile route with ten stops three times during the year in March, April and June. This is part of a larger initiative called the North American Amphibian Monitoring Program (NAAMP.) The routes were generated by NAAMP and the data collected in New Jersey will be submitted to the National database.
