Fowler's toad (Anaxyrus fowleri)

            Flood plane, Red Cedar River, Legg Park, Meridian Township. Michigan

Fowler's toad is a native species in Michigan and known to occur in the eastern part of North America.  It is relatively small ( 5 - 9 cm) and found in a number of habitats ranging from open fields to beaches and woodlands. The species is known to hybridize with closely related species (American toad and Woodhouse's toad). The species is known to produce defensive toxins (bufadienolides) from the warts on its back that are distasteful to predators and can be lethal to small mammals. Other defensive mechanisms include it coloration and playing dead.
