New Mexico Spadefoot Toad was created in 1863.
The state amphibian of New Mexico is the New Mexico Spadefoot Toad.
THE spadefoot toad has adapted to living in the desert areas by sleeping underground for 6 months to keep out of the immense heat outside. The spadefoot toad can also store water inside their body, so while they are underground, they do not need to drink any water at all. When it begins to rain outside the spadefoot toad leaves its hole to catch insects like beetles, grasshoppers, katydids, and crickets. THEY ARE FOUND IN Baja California, Mexico, southern Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, and parts of Oklahoma.
