that's the same guess I had but its so hard to tell given how small the little thing is

yeah I'm pretty sure it is...they may even be siblings since they were found very close to each other and both look like their fresh out of tadpole stage

I believe though it's not the same toad it maybe the same species.

No this is a different one. Found at almost the same time though

Is this the same toad as the other spotting where it's in someone's hand?
