We have little American Toadlets in my parent's yard, and I've been (carefully) scooping them up out of dog-gobbling range and releasing them into my mother's cabbages in hopes they do something about the cabbage moth caterpillars. Some of them chill out, enjoy their hand-ride and photograph well, like this portly little creature.

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?

No I thought not.
Is A. terrestris svelt, nimble, and covered in bright reticulated patterns like Atelopus hoogmoedi?

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?

No I thought not.
Is A. anaxyrus a miniaturised toad with comically large hands and feet like Pelophryne albotaeniata?

No I thought not.
Does A. terrestis climb trees and give birth to fully developed froglets like Nectophrynoides viviparus?

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??
