They especially prefer areas where the ground is covered with dense plants - this helps them hide easily. Chipmunks carry several nuts at a time in their cheek pouches and bring these back to store in their burrows. They are often out basking on logs near the water's edge. These turtles can spend 6 minutes under water feeding. There is both a yellow and blue phase of the female butterfly, which can be seen.
Toads prefer to live in areas where insects and moisture are abundant.
These toads do have warts in the spots on their skin and these secrete a toxin, which will make predators sick if a toad is eaten. Some predators have become immune to this toxin. They live in marshy areas nearby rivers and lakes where they feed on fish. The birds usually live in a colony with others, especially during breeding season. They hold their neck in an S shape and their legs trail behind them as they fly.
