Terrifying headless toad with a STUMP for a face and a tiny hole where its mouth should be baffles scientists

The adult toad was spotted in a forest in Connecticut by a student

The toad has a healthy-looking body and legs but has no face or features

Its face may have been eaten by rats or it may have been a victim of fly larvae

얼굴없는 두꺼비

다 자란 두꺼비가 미 코네티컷의 한 숲속에서 한 학생에 의해 발견됐다.

이 두꺼비는 튼튼한 모습과 다리를 가지고 있었으나 얼굴 부분이 없었다.

얼굴 부분을 쥐한테 먹혔거나 파리 유충에 공격당했을 것으로 보고 있다.
