I thought that but then I read ...

If another male or an unreceptive female is grasped a short release call will be made, if not released they will stretch their hind legs out behind them and attempt to squirm their way out of the males grip continuing to emit the release call until free.

My toads make two different calls...one is a low sort of barking noise, the other is hard to explain...its a longer noise. They are doing it right now They are funny little things!
