I saw this episode today as well as awhile back and thought it was important enough to share with everyone. The news article above gives you an idea to what is going on. Amphibians and Reptiles aren't the only ones who are in decline. It is very sad really. What sucks is that a large population of Pollinating insects are vanishing. What's incredible is that they affect 1/3, if not more, of the world's food population. Also we import bees from Australia to the US to try to fix the dying populations here in the US from CCD, Colony Collapse Disorder. The AIDS like disease is one theory among many but I just thought it was interestingto share.

PS: The article is kind of old but they are still doing investigations on it now.
