The Garden Toad in The Boys' Life Article
A. H. Kirkland notes limited conclusive evidence of toads found alive in rocks or deep soil. Experiments show toads can survive at least 18 months sealed in plaster or limestone, potentially living 20 years or more. Toads hibernate in small colonies, feed mainly at night, and eat caterpillars beetles ants and similar prey, with observed high food intake when abundant.
