In the southwest U.S., Sonoran desert toads mate when the rains start during the monsoon season, typically from late June through September. During the mating season males will inflate their vocal sacs and croak. The croaking helps them claim territory and will attract females. I have wanted to create a competition piece with a reproduction toad doing this type of behavior (croaking) for quite a few years. Through the decades of competing and judging, I have never seen one done this way, so I decided to give it a try.
