Wanted to know what kind of tad this MAY be? I just needed a second opinion because Ive never seen a rana clamitans melanonta/catesbeiana tad look like this. Just caught the other day in a perm. pond. and yes this tad is BIG. caught in NY state.

While Im asking, is this a american toad? bufo americanus? making sure its not a fowleri/spadefoot.



sorry to sound dumb, but im new to id-ing frogs/toads.
