Japanese Mountain Toad

Bufo japonicus

Description:

Japanese Mountain Toad spotted swimming in the Karasawa River, in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. It was a very hot day, so I am sure it enjoyed a refreshing swim!

Notes:

Pictures are poor quality due to distance/zoom, I took them looking down from atop a dam. For some better quality photos you can see my previous spotting of this animal at https://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/23...

Brian38, Thanks! I will be living here in Japan until June 2021, so I will do my best to include as many interesting spottings from here that I can find during that time.

Great captures of that toad Sargon! Your Japanese spottings have been so fascinating and interesting! There just hasn't been that many spottings from Japan on PN. Thanks for sharing.
