Please don’t lick this psychedelic toad, National Park Service warns

6abc Philadelphia writes “As tasty as it might look, you should refrain from licking the Sonoran desert toad, the National Park Service has warned.

But the toads, found across the American southwest, also boast another unique feature: They “have prominent parotid glands that secrete a potent toxin,” according to the NPS. The parotid glands are located just behind the toad’s eyes.”
