The warty toad Chauns spinulosus is an amphibian with dry skin covered with sharp warts. It lives in South America and hunts insects.
The warty toad differs from related species by very sharp and dense warts on the back. It is useful for nature as it eats harmful insects and serves as food for other animals.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
