It can take place at any time between February and July, depending on temperature and height. Most eggs successfully hatch after about 3-6 days and youngThey remain in the pulse stage phase anywhere from 1 to 4 months. Almost 100% of hatchling survives and is subject to metamorphosis.

Tadpoles survive on the diet of plants, while adult toads are mostly carnivorous and benefit snail and insects that catch their long, sticky tongues. Mine and young toads are more active during the day and then mostly become night as adults. The toads normally move by jumping, although they sometimes navigate a slow walk or browsing. Adults generally spend the days underground and give dreams to seek friends and breed.

Many children like to catch frogs and toads, but Arizona toad is one amphibian to avoid manipulation. It has glands behind the eyes capable of secreting poison fluid. When this poison touches the mucous membranes of the mouth, it can cause nausea, inflammation, irregular heart rhythm and sometimes can be fatal.

The loss of habitats due to human development can also reduce the local population of Arizona toad. However, this toad is no shortage and does not appear on lists of endangered species.
