The Eastern American Toad is a common amphibian found in the eastern United States and parts of Canada. It typically has a warty, brownish skin that helps it blend into its surroundings. Adults can grow to about 2 to 4 inches in length and are known for their distinctive, loud calls during the breeding season. These toads prefer habitats like forests, gardens, and wetlands, where they can find moisture and food. They primarily eat insects and other small invertebrates. The Eastern American Toad plays an important role in controlling insect populations and is a key part of its ecosystem.
