“We now move on to the… wetter part of the forest. Observe, if you will, this slimy little denizen: neither fish nor fowl, perched right upon the lip of the lapping brook. This blob-like, repellent, belch of nature… Evolution doesn’t have a plan. It makes frequent and catastrophic mistakes. And this is among its most horrible botch jobs! You could not pay me a thousand pounds to touch on its backside! And the witches tale that to touch it brings a wart, I believe is true! The toads of fiction are charming creatures; they wear waistcoats and drive motorcars. But the toads of nature are vile and grotesque abominations that should be snuffed out of existence. Everything has its part to play in the vast circle and panoply of nature, save the toad, which must be blotted out and shot into space!” -David Attenborough -Ross Bryant, Make Some Noise Season 2 Episode 3
