Toads In Europe

[Diogo Juliao]

Thanks for the reply! Well, it's a lot easier to find newt and salamander species, and even frogs, than it is to find toads, I may have to wait for the big shows at the end of the summer and travel over 1500 miles to get some new species.

Lol that is a long plane ride. What kinds of toads do you have? I know that midwife toads are common around your area, maybe you could get some of those?

Right now I only own 5 CB2011 Bufo bufo and a big old wc female, 5 Rhinella marina, 1 Discophus guineti. I used to have a B. melanostictus but I gave it away a few years ago.
Even if I found some midwifes, and I actually never saw one, I don't think I would catch it. We have strict laws about collecting animals, and the midwifes are already so hard to see, I wouldn't want to contribute to that.

I was aiming at some B. melanostictus and B. brongersmai.

Oh ok, laws like Australia with native animals? Oh well, good luck with your search though!
