Looks almost like a bufo bufo (european common toad) but the photo angle above shows a rather pointed nose. Do you have a pic from a different angle ?

shy toad!

Sorry, sorry! No more pic about it! He ran away after this one! He didn't want to stay in my son's hands! Hehehe!
He didn't KNOW what could happen with him! ...eventhough he's really nice with animals!
