Man dies after eating toads for supper A South Korean man has died from food poisoning after eating a poisonous toad for his supper. The 57-year-old man was among friends who caught five bullfrogs fishing at a reservoir near the city of Daejeon in March. The trio cooked and devoured the amphibians at a nearby restaurant days later. The man, only identified by his surname Hwang, started vomiting and was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died the next morning. Toads produce bufotenin, a highly toxic substance in their glands when they feel threatened. The milky white fluid causes intense pain, temporary blindness and inflammation, which can kill within 15 minutes if taken in large amounts. www.standard.co.uk/news/world/man-dies-after-eating-toads-for-supper-a3520051.html |

Poisonous frogs and toads are not uncommon. It's like collecting your own mushrooms. You'd better really know your shit, 'cause you're dancing with death.

Whenever I hear of some moron eating something like a poisonous pufferfish, or drinking pig's blood, and dying, I can't help but think of the way Nature balances itself.
I am usually a sympathetic twit at heart, but not in these cases.
