当地地震局排除了居民视这一不寻常现象为自然灾害即将来临的预兆的担忧。

这一场景是4月13日在四川省自贡邓关大桥附近拍摄的。

Li Yifan, chairman of Zigong Bird Watching Association, told the Cover News that the toads were Asiatic Toads, a type of amphibians that is commonly seen in China.
自贡市观鸟协会理事长李一凡向封面新闻表示：“视频中的动物系中华蟾蜍，这是一种在中国大地普遍存在的两栖动物。”

他解释说，这些蟾蜍的出现与天气有关。

'The weather dropped after the shower on April 13. The toads will normally get to the shore when the humidity reaches certain level,' said Mr Li.
他声称，4月13日，阵雨过后，气温骤降。在湿度达到一定水平时，蟾蜍通常会上岸。

Footage posted on Pear Video, shows thousands of warty-skinned toads on the bricks, stairs and roads around Dengguan bridge. One woman can be heard saying: 'Oh, there's a lot! Is there an earthquake coming?'
这段上传在梨视频上的视频显示，数千只圆疣蟾蜍在邓关大桥周围的砖块、楼梯和道路上。视频中还有一个女性在说：“好多哟，是不是要地震哦？” 。

An officer from the local earthquake monitoring bureau told Pear Video that 'it's normal that the toads came up ashore due to the high humidity in the air'. 'This is related to climate change, it has nothing to do with earthquake,' the officer added.
当地地震监测局的一名官员向“梨视频”表示：“由于空气湿度大，蟾蜍上岸是正常的。这与气候变化有关，与地震无关。”

A lot of the toads were stamped to death on the day, a local resident told the Cover News.The reporter visited the site the next day and found very few toads 'crawling'o on the ground.
一位当地居民告诉封面新闻，当天许多蟾蜍被踩死。第二天，封面新闻记者参观了现场，发现地上几乎已没有蟾蜍在“爬行”。（译：潘玲玲）
