• A group of toads is often called a knot.
• Like frogs, toads also start out life in water as fish-like tadpoles.
• While toads and frogs are biologically the same there are some key differences between them. Toads are associated with a drier, wart-covered, leathery skin, and shorter legs than frogs. They also can live further away from water.
