EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the beauty of a juvenile European green toad, gracefully perched on a bed of vibrant moss. The European green toad, scientifically known as Bufo viridis, is widely distributed across Eurasia and parts of northern Africa. Its adaptable nature allows it to thrive in various habitats, including hilly and mountainous regions; however, it must return to water for breeding purposes. Feeding primarily on small invertebrates such as insects and snails, this remarkable amphibian plays an essential role in maintaining ecological balance. With its striking appearance and intricate patterns, the European green toad can grow over ten centimetres long; interestingly, the males are noticeably smaller than their female counterparts. Captured amidst the picturesque landscapes of Poland by Science Photo Library's talented photographer, this image encapsulates the wonders of young wildlife found within Europe's diverse ecosystems. It serves as a testament to both the incredible biodiversity present in our natural world and the importance of preserving these delicate environments.
