  1. I don't live in country areas but I'm pretty sure they eat insects

  2. Adult American toads are carnivores, but toad tadpoles are considered herbivores, because they graze on aquatic vegetation (algae).

    Adult American toads are generalists. They eat a wide variety of insects and other invertebrates, including snails, beetles, slugs, and earthworms. Unlike most toads, who wait for prey to come along and pounce on it, American toads can shoot out their sticky tongues to catch prey. They also may use their front legs in order to eat larger food. They grasp their food and push it into their mouths. One American toad can eat up to 1,000 insects every day.

    Toads do not drink water but soak it in, absorbing moisture through their skin.

  3. They eat bugs like flies, worms, ants, crickets, mile-worms, other small insects, and even tadpoles, smaller toads, and vegetation like tomatoes and lettuce.

  4. They eat whatever bugs them.

  5. bugs that are nearby in their habitat

  6. McDonald's usually, but sometimes Jack-in-the-Box. The Quarter-Toad burger is pretty good, I hear.
