We stumbled upon this toad at Madre Selva Research Station in the Peruvian Amazon. Note the rather large tick on its back right leg. The tick's microbial community will be analyzed along with the other ~300 ticks we collected from dogs, ~300 fleas from dogs, and ~500 mosquitos collected in Iquitos, Peru and the surrounding jungle.
