The '''Swamp toad''' is a small creature with removable legs. If you choose to remove them, [[toad's legs]] appear in your inventory in place of the swamp toad. The text "You pull the legs off the toad. Poor toad. At least they'll grow back." appears in the chat box. <br />
{{Clear|left}}The toad's legs can be used to make gnome cuisine. They are also used in [[agility potion]]s (when mixed with [[clean toadflax]]) as a secondary ingredient.<br />
<br />
The swamp toad itself (with legs) is the tertiary ingredient for making [[barker toad]] [[summoning pouches|pouches]].<br />
<br />
==Locations==<br />
[[File:Swamp toads location.png|thumb|left|Swamp toads spawn in the [[Tree Gnome Stronghold]] swamp.]]<br />
Swamp toads spawn in the [[Tree Gnome Stronghold]] swamp (18 spawns)<br />
<br />
They are also dropped by [[tortoise]]s, and obtained from [[pickpocketing]] [[Gnome]]s.<br />
<br />
Tree Gnome Stronghold is the most common place to find these.<br />
{{Clear|left}}<br />
<br />
==Collection==<br />
Swamp toads fetch a fair price on the [[Grand Exchange]] due to their use in [[Summoning]] (the [[barker toad]] pouch is the second best pouch to make from [[gold charms]] in terms of [[Summoning]] experience).<br />
<br />
A full inventory of toads is worth {{formatnum:{{#expr:28*{{GEP|swamp toad}}}}}} coins, and they respawn quickly. If you collect them in a more populated world the toads will respawn much quicker. For this reason, gathering them in the [[Tree Gnome Stronghold]] has become a common way to make quick money, with no skill requirements.<br />
<br />
Players are advised to collect them on a well-populated world to reduce the respawn time (see [[Server]]), while avoiding worlds where other players are collecting if possible; there will then be enough spawns for the player to collect constantly. A [[Beast of Burden]] is also recommended. Remember to keep auto retaliate OFF because on rare occasions gnome mages or rangers can attack you from the tortoise pen.<br />
<br />
It takes roughly a minute to bank and return, using either of the banks in the stronghold. A slightly faster banking method is to teleport to [[Mobilising Armies]] using a [[ring of duelling]], and use the [[spirit tree]] to return to the stronghold.<br />
<br />
Players may receive swamp toads from opening a [[box of summoning ingredients]], a possible reward from the [[Familiarisation]] [[Distraction and Diversion]].<br />
