    I agree, but can you post a pic if at all possible? That will help us be 100% sure.

    Hi.

    I have never seen a bright green American Toad. If it does indeed look like an American Toad, and you're sure it's not a Gray or Green Tree Frog, it is more likely a Fowler's Toad. They are more likely to have a green coloration, and they have a strong resemblance to the American Toad.

    If you can post a photo, that will definitely clear things up.

    All the best...

    American toads can vary wildly in colour, but I've never seen one that I'd accuse of being green. Gray treefrogs mentioned above can be quite bright and have bumpy skin to help people confuse them with Toads. They actually used to be referred to as "TreeToads"

    A picture always helps with an ID

    And She found It in Grand Rapid's Michigain
    And I am positive it's not a tree frog because it' about 3 inch wide and 5 inches long all streached out

    It could be a tree frog. Are you saying by stretched out, its with the legs? If so then tree frog is still possible. A pic would REALLY help with id


    The Frog chooses its owner. Treat your life-long friend with respect and care and it will never disappoint!

    A list of Michigan frogs for you to peruse then: http://www.amphibiaweb.org/cgi/amphi...-state_code=MI

    A picture is worth a thousand words. The clearest you can get, from above and from the side would be a big help.

    Could it possibly be Anaxyrus debilis that hopped a ride in some vehicle? We get lots of different species here in WI due to plant shipments and etc. Anaxyrus debilis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    That's a picture of a Blanchard's Cricket Frog from CalPhotos

    These are native to Michigan, but not as large as you describe. Is there no way you can get a photo of the specimen? Maybe with a ruler in the picture?

    You can post screen captures from the video. Or put the video on YouTube and link to it.
