Australian Green and Golden Bell frogs huddle inside a sauna, shielded from a deadly chytrid fungus that would otherwise drive them to extinction.
The disease is a water-borne disease that burrows into the frogs' skin, attacking their bodies and eventually killing them.
Macquarie University biologist Anthony Waddle's dollhouse-sized saunas could change that.
They cost AUD$70 ($US50) to assemble, and he has helped dozens of citizen scientists build their own backyard versions.
