Great Plains Toad

Anaxyrus cognatus

Description:

Although a fairly large species of toad, all the ones I've found have been medium sized (2-2.5 inches). They generally have a gray body color with black spots on the back and a while line down the middle of the dorsum from between the eyes to the cloaca.

Habitat:

These were all found in urban settings near fences, foundations, etc. They are numerous throughout Nebraska.

Notes:

Favorite with the grandkids. There seem to be at least a half dozen living in their back yard.
