L-R Anke Maria Hoffman and Julie Armstrong
Anke Maria Hoefer has been training volunteers to monitor frog calls since 2011.
A passionate advocate for citizen science, environmental education, and frogs, she single handedly coordinates the ACT FrogWatch Program.
Anke co-invented the world’s first mobile-based frog survey device—the FrogPhone.
Her dedication to hands-on learning inspires countless volunteers and students.
Her annual Project Metamorph fosters environmental stewardship and affectionately earned her the title “Crazy Frog Lady.”
Anke’s work exemplifies innovative, grassroots conservation and has significantly advanced knowledge of local frog populations and the habitats they depend on.
Thank you, and congratulations Anke Maria 🐸
