Alas, dear Doctor "Chugabrew," your cutesy folkism contains reference to a "Swamp Toad." There is no such thing. And frogs are much better croakers anyway, but why should we expect you to say anything containing a shred of science?
I do, however, find your mention of amphibian evolution intersting, as some amphibians are currently in a dire state, owing to many outside influences. As a complete aside, read this link and learn yourself a thing or two... Caution: Science Within!
