1. We made an ecological study of the Japanese toad (Bufo bufo japonicus SCHLEGEL) total 70 days in five years from may 1973 to march 1977,at the Nationa] Park for Nature Study, Minato-ku, Tokyo. The results are follows; 2. It seems that toads have cruising range to eating habits. 3. This cruising range seems to be settled in autumn, when toads are zero year old. 4. The breeding ponds are not always near their cruising range. Each individual has its own breeding pond and come there to breed. 5. Toads seem to have homing ability, after breeding they return to the former cruising range.
