Okay, there's cute Knut  the polar bear cub and now there's ... TOADZILLA! I've been following the prolific cane toads in Australia for years, but now they found a BIG one.


You can read the full story at http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/6499713.stm or just google.com/news and search for 'toadzilla.' ;) I remember reading that these toads will eat anything, even cigarette butts, and they're toxic to the touch as well.

Vile. And here we have yet another reason to live in the south of the country. No cane toads in my part of Aus, thank you very much!

Ha! They'll get to NSW before they get to me. Long live Victoria and its cane toad free state!
