For days
A number of mainstream US media
A strange message was posted
Appeal to the population
Cut! Do not! Lick! Scabies! Clams! Toad!
It is estimated that many people have not figured out why people should lick toads when they live well, after all, that thing looks terrible, carries bacteria, and is still slimy. According to the data, the Sonoran desert toad (Latin: BufoAlvarius), also known as the Colorado River toad, is one of the largest toads found in North America, with a body length of nearly 18 centimeters and a faint, muffled call.
But what has attracted the most attention is that the toxin released by this toad was originally used to treat diseases such as brain damage. The New York Times has reported that a US military "Navy SEAL" special soldier once used this toxin to relieve his central nervous system symptoms under the guidance of a doctor. But it soon became clear that human licking of this toxin produces drug-like hallucinations and pleasure.
Because the United States has always had a serious drug problem, along with the recent economic situation is not optimistic, some addicts in order to save money try to use "licking toads" instead of drugs to get "pleasure", and even developed a new type of drug use, called "licking the toad".
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration says that humans eat raw or cooked poison toads will have hallucinogenic effects, and this effect is the same as the toxins in Amanita and some nightshades, the famous poisonous mushroom in North America.
After encountering multiple related cases and cases, the National Park Service (NPS) issued multiple warnings that "toad licking" may also cause anxiety, nausea or seizures, and in some cases even death. But these dangerous warnings have had little effect on addicts, and many American netizens have even dismissed the warnings of these official agencies and mainstream media.
