"Among toads living in farm country, gents tend to resemble the gals —
both inside and out. This doesn't bode well for the hoppers impressing
local ladies, much less fathering their tadpoles.

Toads and other amphibians throughout the world are under siege.
Disease plagues many populations, while others suffer high rates of
deformities or immune suppression. In some regions, species have
simply vanished without a trace."
