An amphibious four-legged [[animal]]. 
[b]Not to be confused with[/b] [[frog]]. Unlike frogs, the physical differences of toads are rough, dry skin, warts on body, stockier body, crests under eyes and mostly come in dull colouring. Toads prefer to crawl and jump on shorter distance compared to frogs. 
Toads are found on every continent, excluding [[Antarctica]]. They prefer to inhabit humid, moist areas like [[wetland]]s, [[pond]]s, or [[lake]]s. Both frogs and toads do croaking vocalization, lay eggs, grow up from [[tadpole]]s, and feed on small animals which are mainly [[bug]]s. Toad tadpoles look chunkier than frog ones.
