UUgghh!

Where's my golf club.!!

Those things are the scurge of our native wildlife.
In Sth Am. it was hard to resist mashing those things up.
Had to keep telling myself,"your in their home now."

Not a bad pic nonetheless.

P.S."Big Boy!!!"..??? Is'nt it only the females that reach those proportions.??

Thanks!

I can understand your feelings toward these toads.
A friend of mine is heading-up research studying the effect that cane toads are having on the freshwater crocodiles found in the McKinlay River, located near the Mary River National Park in the NT.

Yes, the toad pictured is a female.

Wish him the best for me. I spent almost a year in the
Territory, a fantastic place.
The toads have only just reached that part of Oz in the last
couple of years I believe.

Cool Pic. How did you get the cricket Frog to sit on the toads head for the pic? Surprised the toad didnt just eat it.
