Cane Toad

The Cane Toad is very common in Costa Rica. The nocturnal amphib is the world's largest toad and can grow up to 25 cm and weigh more than a kilo. The skin of this toad is toxic to many animals, it can kill a dog and even a human.

Not the best photos, I only had my phone with me.

I was amused that one made a cameo appearance in Lilo & Stich.
