Toads
3 Are Arrested In Terrarium Raid
Authorities have discovered a troubling new method of getting high.
"Toad smoking" is done by extracting venom from the Sonoran Desert toad. Its venom, secreted when the animal gets angry or scared, contains a hallucinogen called bufotenine that can be dried and smoked. In October, a Kansas City, Mo., man was charged with possessing a controlled substance after authorities determined he possessed a toad with the intent to get high. Prosecutor Daniel White said possessing the toad is not illegal, but using it to get high off its venom is. "It is easier to get it, and law enforcement might not immediately know you use it," White said. (AP)

Licking is much easier... no need to dry anything, just poke the toad and lick it.
