These nocturnal animals hunt at night and spend the day sheltered in a cool spot.
Toads spend less time in the water than frogs .
Toads are found all over the world except polar environments and Australia. Toads have no teeth, and most toads have warty skin. Females are larger than males. Toad eggs are laid in the water. When they hatch into tadpoles, they breathe with gills and swim using a tail.
