It's been said that reptiles--frogs and toads especially--are the best barometer to changes in the environment, so it's no surprise that a creature such as the Giant Gatorland Toad emerged from the aftermath of the Big Death.
There are many other amphibian mutations, but few are as menacing to the inhabitants of Gatorland as this creature. With their large and powerful toothy jaws and armored hide, these creatures are blamed for the loss of many swamp travelers as well as animals and children from communities located close to wetlands.
