On May 19, 2011, 10 experts on management of California red-legged frog gathered at the Elkhorn Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve to develop recommendations on red-legged frog management actions that could aid recovery of the species.  The group explored areas of consensus, a couple areas where discussion was needed, and developed guidelines for research priorities to fill much-needed information gaps.

Documents related to and the outcomes of this meeting and subsequent work to improve California red-legged frog recovery are posted here.
