- Scientific Name: Order Anura. Description: Like frogs, toads are amphibians. They differ from most frogs in that they have dry skin, warts, crests behind the eyes, and parotoid glands. The parotoid glands produce a poisonous secretion that helps to defend the toad from predators.This substance, which is called bufotoxin, can cause death in small animals and allergic reactions in humans.ane toads are the largest toads and grow up to nine inches in length. A massive cane toad caught in Australia has been described as the size of a small dog! Diet: Like frogs, most toads eat insects and other arthropods. However, some species eat reptiles, small mammals, and even other amphibians.

"Giant ""Frog From Hell"" Fossil Found in Madagascar" They're sometimes called Pac-Man frogs, she added, and even the little ones will go for you. It's a frog with attitude, even today. And at two or three times the size of the largest living ceratophyrines, Beelzebufo would have had quite a lot more attitude.. The animal sported a protective shield and powerful jaws that may have enabled it to kill hatchling dinosaurs.
