Toad Facts @toadfacts.bsky.social · 12/10/2026
Our friend the Western Japanese Common Toad is normally a very rough-skinned and warty toad, but they become much smoother during breeding season! Individual females are known to perform amplexus with multiple males during breeding season! (photo by Edward)
A reddish-brown toad sitting on a rock with a solid black background! The toad has reddish-orange eyes, very rough skin, very long parotoid glands, and are covered in lots of black bumps!
