toadDefinition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary Jump to: navigation, searchNountoad (plural toads) Derived termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A toad is any of a number of species of amphibians in the order Anura characterized by dry, leathery skin, brown coloration, and wart-like parotoid glands. A distinction between frogs and toads, though common in popular culture, is not made in taxonomy, where toads are spread across families Bufonidae, Bombinatoridae, Discoglossidae, Pelobatidae, Rhinophrynidae, Scaphiopodidae, and Microhylidae. The characteristic features of toads are a result of convergent evolution in dry habitats. A group of toads is called a "Knot." Toads cannot transmit warts to people through handling or skin contact. The bumps on a toad's skin help the animal blend into its environment visually by breaking up its outline. Also, the paratoid gland is often mistaken as 'warts'. They are present on healthy specimens and are not a result of infection. One example of a "toad", Bufo fowleri.From Wikipedia under the

Q. My friend ordered a package from Troll and Toad about 3 weeks ago and it still hasn't arrived. He has emailed them 3 times and no replies so far. My other friends ordered a day after he did but received theirs in 6-10 days. What could be the problem? How long is it supposed to take. We all live close to each other. Asked by unknown - Tue Aug 31 08:01:35 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. Troll and Toad have been having issues with the site recently, so it's no surprise that there could be a strong delay. It usually takes about 2 weeks to receive cards from Troll and Toad to Australia. If they do not arrive within 3-4 weeks, try to get in contact with them, and just ask what's happened, because something may not have been processed, but so long as you've saved the final checkout page, you'll be fine.
