The African toad is a carnivorous amphibian that pulls its long, sticky tongue out of its mouth at incredible speeds to catch and secure its prey. It also helps the toad to hold onto its catch while it tries to eat it. The African toad mainly hunts small invertebrates including insects, worms and spiders that run among the debris of the forest floor. Like other toads, the African toad is a semi-aquatic animal, although it is most commonly found in the water when the female lays her eggs. Much like other tropical toads, the African toad spends most of its life walking, jumping or running on the ground, where it is able to find plenty of food and water
