A Photographic Guide to Frogs and Toads

They are clammy, they croak and they jump. However, there is a lot more to frogs and toads than this. While garden toads may be timid but regular visitors to your garden, the aggressive African Bullfrog (or Pac-man frog) might eat his own offspring, and the venom in the skin of some South American Poison-Arrow frogs can kill 10 men.From the American Green Tree Frog to the Oriental Fire-Bellied Toad, this compact guide is an invaluable reference toal covering the wide variety of frogs and toads in the world today. An introductory section explains what frogs and toads eat, how to tell them apart, where they live and how they reproduce. One hundred species are described in the identifier section, with symbols giving at-a-glance information on location, when the frog or toad is active, habitat and rarity. Accompanied by striking colour photographs of every frog and toad in the directory, this book will introduce you to these newly popular and fascinating creatures.
