Indiana Amphibian Pathogen Surveillance data release

Description

Data in this dataset were collected as a part of a surveillance project for reintroduction of a state endangered species in Indiana. This data was collected in the field by state biologists and sent to the USGS National Wildlife Health Center (NWHC) for testing of four amphibian pathogens, Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bs), Ranavirus, and perkinsea. The dataset includes both the field records of the individual amphibians tested and the results for individuals for all four pathogens.
