Toadpolis were enemies in [[The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess]] and [[Link's Crossbow Training]] that many believed to be Octoroks in the game.  They appear very rarely in only a few places.  Where they can be found include early on in the [[Goron Mines]] dungeon and behind the [[Lake Hylia]] [[Howling Stone]].  They appear as frogs but act very similarly to an [[Octorok]] in previous 3d Zelda games.  Larger versions of these monsters can be seen swimming underwater like fish in the [[Goron Mines]]. Toadpolis can also be found in the Goron Mines, as a fire version. These spit fireballs and Link.
==Nomenclature==
Their name may be a combination of the word "Toad" and the word "Polliwog," which is a synonym for "Tadpole".

They also bear an appearance and similar attacks as [[Zola]]s in the Original Legend of Zelda, and Link's Awakening. Also they bear a resemblance to the [[Deku Toad]].  It is possible that they are its offspring after they go through the tadpole stage.
