Introducing Bait, the little toad with a big personality.

Bait the toad loves the camera, and the camera certainly loves him! From TikTok star to up-and-coming hat model, Bait has come a long way from his river-bed roots. Nothing will stop him from becoming the world's next top supermodel... certainly not the fact that he's an amphibian. (Bait would like to stress that frogs and toads are entirely different-and while frogs must be kissed to become princes, toads are plenty royal on their own, thank you very much.)

In his modeling portfolio, Bait is ready to prove that toads have what it takes to make it big. Whether it's sporting sassy homemade hats, striking confident poses in the garden, or hanging out with his furry friends, this tiny toad has a lot to teach us all about being comfortable in our own skin. Brighten up your day or make a loved one laugh with Bait and his pals, a perfect gift for any age.
