	From Wikopedia: A toad can refer to a number of species of amphibians in the order Anura. A distinction is often made between frogs and toads by their appearance, prompted by the convergent adaptation among so-called “toads” to dry habitats. Many “toads” have leathery skin for better water retention, and brown coloration for camouflage. Their skin also includes warts in winter to hide their delicate skin. However, these adaptations are not reliable indicators of its ancestry. Because . They also tend to burrowtaxonomy reflects only evolutionary relationships, any distinction between frogs and toads is irrelevant to their classification. The Crucifix Toad is a ground dwelling frog, which inhabits the arid areas of western New South Wales and Queensland. To survive long periods without water, the Crucifix Toad will bury itself underground and encase itself in a cocoon. Upon rain, they will emerge from the ground, and begin breeding in temporary ponds. The males call from within the pond to attract the female. The call is a “woop”. The development of the tadpole is rapid. This is to reduce the risk of them dying from the pond drying up. The frog exudes a tacky and elastic “frog glue” onto its dorsal skin when provoked. Its purpose is uncertain; it may be intended to confuse and deter predators such as snakes, or to trap biting insects (which would later be consumed when the frog sheds and eats its skin). Male Crucifix Toads have been documented to use this glue to attach themselves onto the larger females during mating.
