This is the first one I have seen in East Texas, and I have lived here all my life. It is a shame they are killed because people don't check to see if they are poisonous. They do put on a show, that is for sure. I let him loose in one of my barns, as I didn't want him around the house to upset my dogs (who could have very well killed him), and I do like to have frogs around the house. They are good for the ecology.
I like this species of the hognose. But the eastern hognose is cooler to me!
