What is the best toad species, and why is it Anaxyrus terrestris?

Okay Anaxyrus terrestris is definitely a Good Toad™, but I’m not sure if you’re aware of the diversity of toads; A. terrestris is up against some steep competition.

For instance, is A. terrestris blue with yellow spots like Rentapia hosii?

src

No I thought not.

Is A. terrestris svelt, nimble, and covered in bright reticulated patterns like Atelopus hoogmoedi?

src

No I thought not.

Is A. terrestris one of the largest frogs in the world and causing widespread ecological havoc in Australia like Rhinella marina?

src

No I thought not.

Is A. anaxyrus a miniaturised toad with comically large hands and feet like Pelophryne albotaeniata?

src

No I thought not.

Does A. terrestis climb trees and give birth to fully developed froglets like Nectophrynoides viviparus?

src

No I thought not.

IN SUMMARY, Anaxyrus terrestris is good, but who can say it’s the best when there are so many incredible true toads out there??

#animals #frogs #toads #they’re good toads Brent #they’re all good toads #Bufonidae is so diverse #amazing frogs truly #but I feel like most people only know the boring European and North American toads #which is such a disservice to the family #*godfather voice* You being disrespect to my family #it’s like you don’ even get to know us an’ already you’s choosin’ favourites #answers by mark

Amphibiuary 2024 Day 23: Common

One of my favourite frogs, the European common toad! While they are endangered in the UK, thankfully they are abundant over the rest of Europe.

Amphibiuary 2024 Day 19: Underrated

While frogs are certainly not underrated at all, there's definitely a wide gulf between popular species and the ones seen as either bland or 'common' (unfortunately very few frogs are 'common' anymore, even the ones with it in the name!!). The European Common Frog is seen as a bit of boring one, but whenever we get one in the garden it feels like a special gift just for me uwu
