I was out backpacking getting ready to setup camp for the night, when I found a toad with an ant latched on the toad's hindleg biting. At first I thought, if the toad is being bothered, the toad will get rid of the ant. I caught the same toad again and decided to remove the ant. That ant was difficult to remove, I ended up killing the ant for removal. The entire time the toad is wiggling and kicking( I wish I could explain to those critters that I like them and mean no harm). Has anyone ever heard of ants attacking toads?. I was wondering if the toad was in an ant nest eating ants and some of the ants came out to defend their nest?.
