"Toads" are amphibians closely related to frogs, distinguished by their rough, dry, and wart-covered skin. While frogs and toads belong to the same order, Anura, they are separate families within that order. Toads are generally characterized by their shorter hind legs, stout bodies, and parotoid glands behind their eyes, which secrete toxins as a defense mechanism against predators.
Unlike frogs, toads often prefer drier habitats and are commonly found in gardens, fields, and wooded areas rather than near water bodies. In the context of the clue "Frogs’ wartier cousins," "TOADS" accurately identifies these amphibians as relatives of frogs with rougher and wartier skin textures.
