    Default Can somone please help me identify this toad?

    I saw this labeled as a "horned viper toad" with no scientific name at a reptile show in Pomona la last Saturday. If anyone has any info please let me know.

    Sorry for the bad phone pictures.

    So I've got to ask - why in the world did they have a fake toad? When I first saw this, I was all "omg such a pretty toad but why does it look like that?" Someone clue me in here xD

    So they draw you in with a fake, awesome looking toad, then expect you to buy something else from them? So strange. I've been to one reptile show in my life and if they did that, thankfully I did not see it.

    There is a local vendor that always puts plastic red eye tree frogs in the tank with his real red eye tree frogs. I had ran thru a show taking some quick photos of stuff, and took a pic of the fake red eye tree frog. I got home and was like WTF, this isn't a real frog.
