Florida's Frogs & Toads

True Toads

Cane Toad

(Bufo marinus)

Cane Toad - parotoid glands

Noxious Cane Toads have warty skin, and the parotoid glands on the shoulder are longer than the head, tapering to a point toward the back. If your pet bites a toxic Cane Toad, rinse the mouth with the water hose and take the animal to the vet immediately!
