about us Services Career Current media Yellow-bellied toad - the star in the Blauberg quarry Vehicles, noise and dusty terrain: why do the toads feel most at home in the quarry? nature and environment In cooperation with the LBV, the Blauberg quarry has become the ideal habitat for hundreds of yellow-bellied toads. Even television, radio and daily newspapers were interested in the occurrence. No wonder, because the population is probably the largest in the district and beyond. In one evening, the conservationists of the LBV (State Association for Bird Protection) counted around 260 animals. At home there is probably a multiple. The amphibians, which are only a few centimeters tall, are at home in around 20 bodies of water and ponds in the so-called Tiefenbruch. Larger granite blocks around the reserves prevent the yellow-bellied toad from accidentally crossing large devices. The endangered species is on the red list across Europe. In order to create and maintain habitats for them, the mining sites and work in the quarry are strategically planned. If one of the 14 portable bodies of water has to give way for a new mining site, new places of retreat are created when the animals are frozen in winter. For the yellow-bellied toad, moving water is not a big deal. Their natural habitat are floodplains. But because there are hardly any dynamic bodies of water that are constantly creating new puddles in the gravel bed, their population has declined extremely. It is not surprising that they feel at home in active quarries, because the mining work is constantly creating new water points. These were numbered and entered in a specially created waterway map. This should simplify the joint planning with the LBV and bring nature and mining even better into harmony.
