Yosemite Toad Poster – Wildlife Art

Yosemite Toad Poster

The Yosemite Toad (Anaxyrus canorus) is considered a ‘true toad.’ It was once very common in the high elevations of the Sierra Nevada mountains. These toads are perhaps the most colorful of the toads found in North America. They are found in damp meadows and pine forests except when they are breeding in the months of May to July. Because of short summers in their native habitat they are only active for 4-5 months a year. Due to habit loss, pesticides and the chytrid fungus they are now endangered.

For more information visit: National Park Service, iNaturalist.org, and California Dept. of Fish & Wildlife as they offer guides, species lists, and identification tips.

The Yosemite Toad poster features highly detailed and scientifically accurate illustrations, along with information about the animal and a map showing it’s range. The artistic design is complete with both common and scientific names in a title across the top of the image. The poster is shipped in a sturdy 2″ mailing tube with plastic endcaps. The posters can be signed or customized by the artist upon request.
