Sonora Desert Toad
Today I am writing a bout the Sonora desert toad . Which is also called the Colorado River. It is lives in Sonora desert . It eats snails, beetles, spiders, grasshoppers, lizards, mice, and others smaller toad species. Larger animals try to eat it, but when frightened it emits a toxin that makes it's predators nauseous or can kill them. This toad 3-7 long.It is the largest native toad in the U.S. It is olive green to dark brown in color. There no information about tall it . It lives 4-5 years. Most Sonoran Desert Toad are found at night during the monsoon season, but they may emerge a month or more before the summer rains begin , particularly in areas of permeant water.

Sarah,
ReplyDeleteYou need to use your own words or explain the words in the reading. For example: but when frightened it emits a toxin that makes it's predators nauseous or can kill them. ( What does this mean?) What does "monsoon season" mean?
