      I think toads spit a hallucinogenic substance and this is how they confuse their prey.  Never put your face near a toad, for real.

      We absorb noisture through our skin. We can also utilise the extra oxygen. We cool smile

        Any animal that can breathe from gills and then grow lungs has my eternal respect. Amphibeae rock!

        Frogdropping, what happened to the hub about owning a dragon?? That was my go-to funny story.

        Now I'm sad.

    Um...OK...I have a 15 year old frog that we've had since he was a tadpole.  He lives in my kitchen and he sings but usually only late at night.  He doesn't care much for the cat or for being petted.  I've never dropped him...

    I see, where can we drop them exactly? Into a volcano thus making them fine roasted frogs. Or maybe we can drop them into a hole and see how smart they are on escaping? Or better, we can drop them from our lives. Haha

      You can drop them into the kitchen garbage disposal.  I did that once--no harm done.

    On a more serious note, the Cane Toad produces a toxin (bufotenin) which is a controlled substance in Australia.

    PSA for the week: Don't go around licking random toads. They might kill you!

    The absence  or decreasing numbers of frogs in any area is an indication of an environmental problem...
    they are the eco-guinea pigs...hmm

    There are two types of frog found on Tenerife - the Stripeless Tree Frog, which is the commoner of the two, and the Iberian Water Frog. You can hear the  tree frogs singing in spring in the banana plantations where a lot of them live.

    That's wonderful! Have anyone considered making frogs as their source of entertainment? Sometimes, I think that their croaks are beautiful to hear.
