My friends would be aware that I have lived a long life on the tropical coast which also means I have shared my time and space with the cane toad, a specie to which familiarity does NOT bring love or affection.
I'm pretty sure I've shared my thoughts on the possibilities of why the numbers of toads in my suburban environment may have decreased by 98%. [If I said 99% you'd accuse me of exaggeration. ] I won't go over old ground but here are a couple of good news videos.
This is four years old. Have you heard of it? I haven't.
If you live with toads, do some research and try to get your council to take it seriously.
