    Valentine’s Day is an important date in many people’s diaries, but for Bristol Zoo it marks the first anniversary of the opening of its amphibian breeding sanctuary.

    Called The AmphiPod, the facility is home to two of the world’s most endangered frog species - lemur leaf frogs and golden mantella frogs. Both species are listed as ‘critically endangered’ on the IUCN Red List of threatened species.
