Garden Wildlife Health is a collaborative project between the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), the British Trust for Ornithology (BTO), Froglife and the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) which aims to monitor the health of and identify disease threats to, British wildlife. Please report sightings of ill health in garden wildlife, specifically garden birds, amphibians, reptiles and hedgehogs, via our website, so we can conduct disease surveillance to learn about threats to wildlife health. Our website provides a library of disease factsheets on conditions affecting garden wildlife and best practice guidance for habitat management.
