Acid rain is a result, largely, of air pollution from cars, trucks, industries and FIREs filling our skies, only to be brought BACK to Earth through the falling rain. But since many amphibians have very sensitive skin ---- in the 'PH balance' (acidity) of the water in which they live, ACID Rain can DESTROY the more delicate species, such as salamanders and frogs.
