3. Mostly depends whether or not they accidentally ingest sand when they catch their bugs.
Little animals like frogs and lizards that tend to catch prey whole in their mouth can sometimes have that problem.

I've also discovered that toads have no compunctions against peeing at random times though... A few weeks ago I tried to catch one hopping across a parking lot and deliver it safely into the bushes so it didn't get run over and the damn thing peed on me. How's THAT for gratitude.

4. No
but if they had wings they wouldn't bump their asses when they hopped.

5. Yes, and I want to testify about it.
My brother had a pet toad, one day it escaped its terrarium and we found it in the drain-pipe of the basement. it looked puffed up. We took it inside and put it in the sink to clean it and it crapped out a huge turd.
