1 Toads differ from most frogs because they have dry brownish skin, warts and crests behind the eyes. Frogs have smooth, wet-looking yellow to brown skin.
2 The critters can be found almost everywhere on the planet and there are around 350 species, but while they're born in water, toads live on land. A group is called a knot.
3 poison Many breeds have behind their eyes, in the parotoid gland, which can be used to fend off predators. In winter, they hibernate underground.
4 When they shed their skin, toads often eat it to prevent attackers following their trail.
