Pewter is a metal alloy. It is a combination of more than one metal that consists mainly of tin. Pewter can look very similar to silver. No one knows exactly when or how pewter was invented. Chinese pewter, believed to be about 2,000 years old, has been found. Romans used pewter for small utensils and seals.
Many of New Zealand frogs were originally introduced from Australia over the past 100 years. At present there are four species of native frogs and three species of introduced frogs in New Zealand. Two of the introduced Bell frog species as well as all New Zealand's unique native species are listed as threatened or endangered.
