Cricket-eating amphibian (4)

I believe the answer is:

toad

(Other definitions for toad that I've seen before include "Ugly creature, jewel in head (AYLI)" , "Ancestral hall on River Bank" , "Froglike animal or repulsive person" , "Dangerous driver" , "Amphibian with warts" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
