I guess German toads should now be known as Promethei Bufo from now on.


And in case your wondering. That was a very clever, and witty comment. ;D

...It's amazing just how much of our English language still contains lots of Latin words...

Studying Latin makes a nice break in between dodging raining frogs.. ;)... ;D...!
