TOADS with Priya Nanjappa

Amphibian scientist and toad enthusiast Priya Nanjappa stands in a marsh and holds a toad. She is smiling but the toad appears to have a deep, grumpy frown.

Ohaaay another edited-down, classroom-friendly Smologies! About... toads! Are they frogs? Do they have arms? What do they eat? How long do they live? What’s with the warts? Amphibian enthusiast Priya Nanjappa joins with a toadally awesome episode that will change the way you crouch down and shake hands with your tiny backyard grumpa.
