Nice, cane toads are funky looking things.

Many years ago I milked one and managed to squeeze the toxins into my eye, blurred vision and swollen eyelids was the result, that last a good few hours too

Here is one that I found in my backyard. I actually like them but ironically have killed several 1000 over the years. They are a major problem up here which is a shame as they are delightful animals in their own way.

grumpy face yes but im guessing hes killed several 1000 because he may be from australia ??????? ..these toads were introduced from africa i beleive..set free into the country of australia to control a beetle that was eating the crops but instead they ate everything else too and began to breed and double in numbers and take over...and are now classed as vermin and are killed ..it is sad as they are nice toads but are dammaging the natural flora dn fauna of the country ..they are not only poisonus to a degree and can give of nasty nuro toxins but there are prolific breeders..the females lay severaly thousand eggs at a time like 30.000..and the tadpoles hatch within just one day !!!! amazingly quickly..and they are out of the water as toadletts within two weeks....so are taking over the south and north of australia ..they are culled.
