One Devil Of A Toad
ADVERTISEMENT
Published: February 19, 2008
A frog the size of a bowling ball, with heavy armor and teeth, lived among dinosaurs millions of years ago - intimidating enough that scientists dubbed it Beelzebufo, or Devil Toad. Researchers discovered the beast's bones in Madagascar, yet it seems to be a close relative of normal-sized frogs in South America today. The discovery was published Monday by the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
