Toads causing rift in village of Nakusp

They’re tiny creatures and they’re creating a rift in the village of Nakusp, B.C.

The Western Toad spends most of its time in the forest — the same forest loggers want to harvest.

Environmentalists say logging will destroy the toad’s habitat and have set up a blockade.

But the mayor of Nakusp says the loggers have done their homework and that mortality is just a fact of life.
