The other night when I came home from the evening milking,
this fellow was attempting to get in the front door.

And He didn't want to let me in!

Don't they have interesting skin?

I carefully moved him with my foot so I could open the door, he was not happy with me for not letting him in the house.

I was reading up on Colorado River Toads, and found out

"When a Colorado River toad is threatened, it will secrete a milky-white hallucinogenic toxin from the parotoid glands under its jaw."

Do you think the Pincess that kissed the Frog Prince, was merely "tripping out"?

We only see them this time of year, our rainy season. Otherwise they are in a sort of hybernation under the ground.
