An ancient grudge.

Is that a TOAD? I've never seen one that big that wasn't like, in Africa. (Californians mostly get little tree frogs or big bullfrogs)

Tons of toads down here in Texas. Specifically southern toads, IIRC. I used to pick them up and use them to scare the other girls when I was a little kid. They have this defense mechanism such that if you scare them, they...ah...they pee on you (the toads, not the girls). I...may have considered this a feature and not a bug, and used it to my advantage.

I was a regrettable child.

My dog LOVES toads. Every time she licks one, she starts foaming at the mouth from the bitter defensive toxins...but she never learns.

Growing up in PA we routinely found toads the size of softballs.

Yeah, this was a big ol' toad. This Vine is the best toad that was ever on our deck, though:

Toadbutt 2! He's back...

Ralph Mazza one of my dogs does that same thing. He'll pick one up, start foaming, drop it, then pick it up again, then drop it, then pick it up again...

Toad vs. Cat. It is a story as old as the hills.
