However, a decently trained soldier will do nicely providing he has good armor, but you should probably use more than one to take it down, on the off chance the giant toad gets a lucky hit. If you plan on using traps to dispose of them, you should probably note that even a large serrated iron disc, ''might'' not dispatch them. More often than not, they will die, but there's always the possibility that the right parts just weren't hit, so you should be wary of it limping around and biting Dwarves.
