Frog species are disappearing at an alarming rate while cockroaches are not..Question: is this the result of frog DNA succumbing to entropy, or is it due to disease or some change in the environment?

"Question: is this the result of frog DNA succumbing to entropy, or is it due to disease or some change in the environment?" Cock roaches require very little from their environment; mostly adequate heat. - Frogs on the other hand require quite alot. The slightest change can render a frog pond history. I see this in action in realtime up at our ranch frequently when I do maintenance work on the road berms. The redirection of the drainage back to normal can erase a new frog pond in hours. No amount of maintenance has ever eliminated roaches nor ants!

(The beginning of the O'Bummer administration looks allot like the end of the Nixon administration)
