Notes
Park Species Detail: Rodda & Dean-Bradley reported that toads were seen at several sites in WAPA, and can be expected to appear near water bodies or after rains. They found moderate densities in both grassland (mean = 267/ha) and tangantangan sites (mean = 300/ha). The National Park Service has a WAPA photo gallery that shows pictures of lizard species found at the park, including Bufo marinus, photo taken by USGS.
