Abstract Reintroductions may mitigate the effects of severe amphibian declines, but chytridiomycosis—the often‐deadly disease caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd)—can hinder these efforts. Exposing amphibians to the pathogen ex situ may improve disease outcomes post‐rele...
