Longevity Of A Woodhouse's Toad, Richard M. Engeman, Melvin A. Engeman

USDA Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

We follow up a report on a male Woodhouse's toad (Bufo woodhousii) that had been observed since 1978 (Engeman RM, Engeman EM. 1996. Longevity of Woodhouse's toad in Colorado. Northwestern Naturalist 77:23). The toad had found its way into, and remained in, a basement window-well of a brick home in an unincorporated western suburb of Denver, Colorado. This property has recently changed hands, and access for future monitoring of the toad's survival is uncertain. Thus, we report its longevity as of 2002.
