The toads in Schaprode explode mainly on the road.

Access to it has been sealed off and every night a biologist visits it between 2:00 and 3:00 am, which appears to be peak time for batrachians to go bang.

Oh, sure ... the biologist "visits" them. I think we need look no further for the cause. Just check for genital warts and the case is closed.

Steve Martin had an old drug skit about "Getting Small."

Has DU and Soros got a new eeeeevil drug and are testing it on themselves?

Since of course they wouldn't explode REAL toads, they're PETAphiles....

They can die of bloating, but I've never heard of them actually popping.

Die kroten in Schaprode explodieren hauptsachlich
auf der strasse.

There that has a more fingerspitzengefel about it.

yes you have to go out and puncture their stomach with
a pin to let the gas out.

Kind of ruins it for haggis later though.

"yes you have to go out and puncture their stomach with
a pin to let the gas out.. "

I just about killed 15 to 20 dairy cows once, leaving them out in the alfalfa too long. I was taking a nap with my 2 year old...woke up and one of them was barely standing, due to the pressure on her heart. I flagged down an 80 y.o. out for a walk, and a drunken 70 y.o. driving (yes, driving) by, while awaiting the vet to show up from the other side of the county. When he got there, he stabbed them with not a pin, but a big knife in the (1 of 4) stomach(s). He then proceeded to do 4 or 5 more cows, instructing me how to handle it "next time." Fortunately the incident never repeated. I don't think this would work on a road toad with an overload...
