Description This toad gave me a bit of a shock yesterday. I saw a plant pot that falls down so I lift it up, and this little guy is right beside it. That was on a pretty high bench, and I didn't expect any toad to be there.

(S)he stay completely still even though I move things around him a lot and his body were in weird shape. I thought he might be sick and was too weak to move around and that he might die.
And after  I took several shots he just stand up and walk away.  




Animal Info
Duttaphrynus Melanostictus (Asian Common Toad, Common Indian Toad, Asian Spined Toad, Black-Spined Toad)

Asian Common Toad can be found across Asia. They are nocturnal, terrestrial toads. Their skin color varies from gray to brown to yellow. In Thailand they can be found almost everywhere, city, street, park, backyard, farm, and sometime hey even enter the house. They eat almost every arthropods that can fit into their mouth.

And dogs love to play with them - poking and softly biting, causing their saliva to bubble because of the toad's poison. Andddd no matter how bad it looks my dogs still love to do it anyway.
