Frogs and Warts

Some say that you get warts from touching frogs and toads.

* You get warts from human viruses, not from frogs and toads!
Frogs have slimy skin to stay moist when it is dry, and toads have bumpy skin to help camouflage them in their habitat. Some frogs and toads have paratoidal glands which secrete poisons as protection which can cause skin irritations and may be poisonous to some species of animals, but warts have nothing at all to do with the frogs themselves!
