description Southern Toad Overview

The southern toad, Anaxyrus terrestris, is a terrestrial toad native to the southeastern coastal plain of the United States. It is recognized by the raised cranial crests on its head, usually accompanied by enlarged knobs behind the eyes, and by the dark spots and parotoid glands common to many North American toads. Southern toads feed mainly on small invertebrates and reproduce in temporary or permanent freshwater pools after rainfall.
