Toads
tend to be solitary, living under logs and stones, often
well away from the water. They hibernate here usually from
about mid-October to mid-March. Toads hibernate in burrows
or bury themselves in mud.
Toads are cold-blooded and their body processes slow down
as the outside temperature drops. When spring arrives, the
toads emerge from hibernation and migrate to breeding ponds,
often in huge numbers.
