The Ugly Aussie
(stolen from the Good Weekend)
The story of the giant cane toad introduced to Queensland from Hawaii in june 1935, to fight a pest of the sugar crop: the cane beetle. One hundred and two toads came by ship to Gordonvale, Queensland. They bred enthusiatiscally and two months later, when they were released in sugar growing areas, they numbered 3,000. They ate moths, plants, lizards, frogs, fish, mice, household waste - virtually every small thing except the cane beetle, which lived on the cane, where the toads could not reach it, or in fields without ground cover, where the frogs have no reason to go...
Eastern Australia is now home to 200 million cane toads...

Singing the praises of Frogs....
Is there anyhting the humble frog cannot do. Ride a Harley, an organic Viagara and help one become a millionaire.
Saw this picture of a Frog (Toad) riding a motorcycle
Perchance came across the story in Ananova. A Thai woman claims her pet frog enjoys riding toy motorcycles and can predict winning lottery numbers. Tongsai Boommrungtai, 52, came across the black spotted frog, which she called Nong Oui, outside her house in Roi-Et.
"The frog had a small chick in its mouth," she said. "I looked her straight in the eye and knew I could communicate with her. I told her to drop the chick and she did and then came hopping in.
"Ever since she has been a member of the family. For a long time villagers would come round and get tips on the National Lottery with the frog's help. They used to read the skin on her stomach and look for numbers.
"Ten people subsequently won the lottery which drew crowds to the house - and then they started losing. So I have had to ground her. I promised one day to take her to the seaside, and her dream has come true.
"There is nothing more that she likes than to chill out on her toy Harley-Davison, or a battery operated dumper truck. But she can strike a pose just about anywhere."
