They brought them over from South America to eat the cane beetles years ago. The only problem is, the cane beetles sit at the top of the sugar cane and the toads can't reach them. The toads are now out of control and impossible to get rid of. It's a national passtime for qld boys to go 'toad hunting' at night and see who can kill the most toads. The use such weapons as cricket wickets, golf clubs and lumps of wood.
