Toad patrol volunteers helped almost 10,000 animals cross a road last year, volunteer say.
The Toads on Roads Patrol is a group of volunteers going out every night between January and March to Hawkridge Reservoir on the Quantocks in Somerset to carry toads, frogs and newts over the road.
The group is part of the Friends of the Quantocks group and is continuing to help with the crossing this year.

I wonder if while wandering around in the dark they ever accidentally step on one
I have done toad patrolling for quite a few years. You are on an open road surface, you have a torch, probably a head torch too, and you are specifically looking for toads.
I have certainly never stood on one.
