Well, truthfully, in all my hogs that have eaten toads, the toad never gets away(sorta negates the question doesn't it). Hypotheticallly, I would expect the poison would work on the toad in a relatively short amount of time and probably kill it depending on length of time, size, ect. I have seen toads hold on for quite a while before dying, but most of the time they really do slow down a fair amount fairly quickly. I have also seen toads that were regurged by hogs. It is not a pretty sight...lots of damage around the area where the venom was injected and a fair amount of blood. Andy
