4:01Now PlayingThis toad influencer is catching flies — and millions of likes on TikTok and Instagram. Meet Savannah Mikell, the creator behind one of social media’s most famous frogs. Surprisingly, Yaboi Toby Toad is not her pet. He’s actually a “porch toad,” which Mikell says is a “Florida thing.” See how she stages tiny tableaus centered around Toby in this original video from New York Post.
It helps that Mikell’s aunt, Cindy Penberthy, is a professional miniaturist who contributes dollhouse furniture, costumes and props to the amphibian’s stardom. What started as a hobby has turned into a career for Mikell, complete with an Etsy shop. She told The Post: “I’m making enough [money] with Toby to quit my bartending job and focus on finishing my degree.” Clearly, Yaboi Toby Toad is something to “ribbit” about.
