 | | Toads like to hide in cool, dark places during the day and come out a night to hunt. |
 | | While frogs are happy to pass the winter at the bottom of a pond, toads are terrestrial hibernators: they'll dig deep into soft garden soil, beneath the frost line, to spend the long, freezing months in dormancy. |
 | | Dig a hole 2 metres deep and 1.5 metres square in a warm, sunny clearing next to a woodlot. |
