Few people like amphibian: well, if a frog or toad just inevitable, but often the animal is trying to hurt! Unmotivated aggression on the part of man can be explained only by its narrow-mindedness – it is strange to want to hurt an animal like the earthen toad, if you know about it a little bit.
The Dislike of frogs goes through the generations. In the middle ages these animals were treated with special contempt and fear. In all civilized countries it was believed that to touch the toad – that's death. And the reason for the destruction was allegedly made by the poison secreted by the toad through the skin.
Its intrigue and danger for our ancestors was that a person could become a kind of incubator for them. Explained it this way: with a poor or untreated water you can drink the eggs of frogs, and in the stomach, they successfully hatch and begin active life. For modern man this may sound crazy, but before this state is very actively treated.
Science has proven that man's toad is a no-brainer. Yes, in case of extreme situations earthen toad can produce special protective secretions from the skin, but it performs rather deterrent role, and will not cause any harm.
For many people, is a fundamental question: who exactly they met, the frog if the frog? And although the danger is not nor one nor the other, to distinguish them quite easy.
Most people are on vacation amphibians in ponds or in yards where there is a constant source of moisture. So, usually feels great earth toad in the garden – that is where gardeners often meet and unreasonably scared.
Like other amphibians, the season of falling temperatures toads hibernate. So no one can disturb the process of expectations heat, they burrow into the soil to a depth of 10 centimeters, hiding under the roots of trees and stumps and can even use the abandoned burrows of rodents.

In the warm season activity of frogs falls on the night. At this time, they go in search of food-it's not uncommon on a summer evening to meet a toad in places, lit by lanterns.
Quite interesting is the answer to the question, how to multiply excavation toads. First of all, these animals cannot do without water: in the reservoir they spawn.
The Eggs of frogs have a special kind of – it resembles a long, thin cord. Such cords rest on the bottom of the pond or can be wrapped around algae. Sometimes the length of such cord reaches 5-8 meters!
