A family found a toad and snake in their toilet and had to call an expert to remove them after failing to flush out the unwanted visitors.
The Argentinian family discovered the green-colored toad in their toilet bowl near the waterline after a family member went to the bathroom.
The large toad filled almost the entire bottom of the bowl.

The snake sticks its tongue out from under the rim.
The family flushed the toilet to remove the toad and force the snake out of hiding, but to no avail.
They quickly closed the lid and immediately called local authorities in Alta Gracia in Argentina’s Cordoba province.
Roberto Peralta, Alta Gracia’s civil defense chief, said the family did the right thing by calling the authorities.
He said, ‘Always be careful with snakes.
“Don’t touch them and find specialized personnel for this kind of thing, just like this family did.”
Mr Peralta said the snake had left the toilet and was found on the floor by the time experts arrived at the house.
In one photo, the reptile can be seen curled up behind the toilet after escaping from the toilet.
It looked straight ahead at an insect crawling a few inches in front of it.
Mr Peralta said it was a Wagler snake, which is not considered dangerous to humans.
He added, “It’s not poisonous, but you have to be careful anyway.”
