If your dad found a dead cow on the side of the road and brought it home to eat for dinner would you? What do you think the toad thinks when he see's a dead fly. exactly what you think about the dead cow.

How long can a toad live under water?
They can't live underwater as a toad, but as a tadpole they live underwater. But then they transform in many different ways. They grow legs, and lungs instead of gills. However, toads and frogs still have to stay moisterized, because they do about half of their breathing through the pores in their skin.

They can live a long time underwater, but don't need to as long as they can find cool, slightly damp hiding-places. They need to return to water for egg-laying though, and often hibernate in pool-floor mud.

Depending on where you live, some species are illegal to own, since they are endangered. However, other places sell them in pet stores. Not many places online sell them, as there are too many hoops to jump through, but if you're in a region that can sell them (Arizona being one of the United States) and can verify that it is legal to own in your area, there should be no problems.

Why would you want to kill toads, they eat bugs. How much damage can they do to your garden?
The Colorado River Toad, Bufo alvarius, is the toad whose poison is most commonly used as an intoxicant (though the practice of using any toad venom for this purpose is rare) . Several other species of toad, such as Bufo marinus, contain one of the same active chemicals, bufotenin. Nevertheless, the toad is not usually licked. Rather, the poison is "milked" from the venom gland and then vaporized. It should be noted that this procedure is very dangerous and should not be attempted. Additionally, the experience often has severe physical side effects.

Americans Toads are very abundant in numbers BUT if we continue to eliminate members of this group by hitting them with cars, stepping on them, or anything else that kills them, they will in deed go extinct.

What does a sonoran desert toad eat?
Mostly large crickets, but also a pinky or a hopper mouse every once and a while
Yes they do. I have a toad and he croaks a pretty fair amount. Toads usually croak for mating reasons - the male usually croaks more than the female whereas the female is usually responding to a male's call.
