Texas, US (Google, OSM)

Description

I just added a resampled version that will make it easier to hear the trill.

Although TP&W does not list Southern Toad as in Texas, this recording seems to indicate it does reside in NE Texas.

The Southern Toad trill is at 2 Hz (American Toad is at 1.4-1.5 kHz).

I've attached both the sound file and 2 segments of the sonogram.

The toad starts at about 1.24sec, stops and starts again at 39 sec, stops at 1 minute 6 sec and then starts again at 1 minute 20 seconds . You can see the start and stop points in the 3 attached sonograms.

Encountered freshly killed doe deep in some woods that had only been attacked on its face. No other wounds (checked for bullet holes but found none). Came back next day to find it covered in leaves. This immediately strikes me as mountain lion. Curious if other predators could be the culprit. Have heard rumors of them in eastern wise county but haven’t heard of any confirmed sightings.

California Giant Salamander (Dicamptodon ensatus)

Description

Friend sent me photos of a large (10 inch) salamander that was found in the redwood forest of Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, Scotts Valley, CA . Photo credit: A. Skinlo.

"There are two species of Giant Salamanders in California. They both look alike, so use the location to help identify the species. The Coastal Giant Salamander is found north of the Mendocino County line, the California Giant Salamander is south.
Giant Salamanders lay eggs in water that hatch into gilled larvae which live at the edge of streams until they lose their gills and move onto land. Aquatic neotenic adults are not uncommon. Adults are occasionally found walking near streams in daylight."
https://californiaherps.com/salamanders/salamandersid.html#giantsalamanders

California Giant Salamander (Dicamptodon ensatus) is endemic to California. https://californiaherps.com/salamanders/pages/d.ensatus.html

California Giant Salamander "natural habitats are damp, temperate forests, and clear, cold, freshwater streams, ponds, and lakes. Adult salamander can reach 17–30.5 cm (6.7–12 inches) in total length (including tail). Like most salamanders, the California giant salamander has four toes on the front feet and five toes on the back feet. The California giant salamander's tail is approximately 40% of the total length of the salamander and is laterally compressed. The head, back, and sides of the salamander have a marbled or reticulate pattern of dark blotches on a light brown or brassy-colored background. They have a broad head with a shovel-like snout and a fold of skin across the throat called the gular fold. The eyes are medium in size and have a brass-flecked iris and a large black pupil. This species is one of the few salamanders capable of vocalizing.
Terrestrial adults search for prey such as snails, slugs, insects (such as beetles, caddisfly larvae, moths, and flies), other invertebrates, small mice (such as white-footed mice), shrews, possibly reptiles, and other amphibians under surface objects and in tunnels, whereas aquatic adults and larvae eat aquatic invertebrates, fish, snakes, and other amphibians." Conservation Status: vulnerable (N3) in United States (NatureServe).
