    Toad — definition & meaning




    WordTypeDefinition
    Toad n. Any one of numerous species of batrachians belonging to the
    genus Bufo and allied genera, especially those of the family Bufonidae.
    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.
