frogs

What makes a frog poisonous? Are they even poisonous enough to kill? How do you tell between poisonous and non-poisonous ones? btw, why is this community inactive since almost 2 years ago?

Hurts your ears most days. Wouldn't change it for the world.

Rhinophrynus dorsalis is the only surviving member of a family of amphibians that once had a distribution throughout North America and contained many more species 30 million years ago. Today the sole species in this family occurs from South Texas down into Costa Rica. They reside deep in the ground and only emerge after heavy rains. Their call is a very bizarre and distinct sound.

Edit: If you give a toad a warm water bath, you really need to make sure the water is safe. I had evian bottles for my pet toad, which I came to after testing many water sources for the right hardness, pH, etc. Tapwater often contains chlorine which can be harmful to amphibians and many brands of bottled water are too soft which can cause too much water to osmote into the amphibian's cells. You should also try to avoid touching a toad as your skin oils and any soap residue can be harmful (in this case I thoroughly washed and rinsed my hands before minimally handling the toad). If you find a trapped and dehydrated toad but don't have the right materials to help it out, try bringing it to a nearby damp and shady spot that it is likely already familiar with.
