If the toad doth swell, run like hell...
Mystery of toads that explode in the night
Suddenly, after nightfall, they start to balloon to more than three times their normal size and can barely crawl before popping. Their entrails are expelled distances of up to one metre. Eeew. To paraphrase SCTV’s Farm Report host Big Jim McBob those toads blowed up real good.

Our toad lives on top of the dining room bookcase. The better to monitor his behavior. Should he start to swell, I hope someone notices and runs the terrarium outdoors. Or calls the bomb squad to blow him up.
