   Toad \Toad\, n. [OE. tode, tade, AS. t[be]die, t[be]dige; of
      unknown origin. Cf. {Tadpole}.] (Zo[94]l.)
      Any one of numerous species of batrachians belonging to the
      genus {Bufo} and allied genera, especially those of the
      family {Bufonid[91]}. Toads are generally terrestrial in
      their habits except during the breeding season, when they
      seek the water. Most of the species burrow beneath the earth
      in the daytime and come forth to feed on insects at night.
      Most toads have a rough, warty skin in which are glands that
      secrete an acrid fluid.
  
      Note: The common toad ({Bufo vulgaris}) and the natterjack
               are familiar European species. The common American toad
               ({B. lentiginosus}) is similar to the European toad,
               but is less warty and is more active, moving chiefly by
               leaping.
