I don't think it is O.K. to touch frogs e.t.c. as the acid in our skin can affect them.

Will my dog be okay after she licked a frog and foamed at the mouth?

Frogs and toads, as well as lizards posses a special chemical in their skin. When licked or when their substances get left behind and animals eat it, they can be harmful to the animal's breathing conditions. The chemicals in the skin causes the animal's throat to swells up, making them unable to breath. Other condition like vomiting, having diarrhea, lack of eating, and heavy breathing show the signs of the animal infected with the substance.


Are fire belly toads ok to touch and handle?

You should not handle fire belly toads or any other kind of frog, toad, or newt. The oils in your skin can harm the animal. Some toads, frogs, and newts have poison that they will release when they feel threatened. Fire belly toads, and most toads have this poison. It is okay to handle them if you must. Do not handle them alot or for fun. If you must pick them up, make sure your hands are clean and wet. If your hands are dry, you will absorb moisture out of the toad and make it dry. They need moisture to live.


Is it fine to catch a frog with your hands?

No, it is not okay. When the oils on a frog's skin that it uses to protect itself from certain diseases are exposed to your hands, they lose those oils and never get them back. And the fewer oil frogs have on their skin, the bigger chance they have of dieing from diseases. Now if you want to kill a frog then pick it up all you want (but I suggest you don't do so!) For more ideas on saving frogs and toads, go to my profile, The Frog Club:)
