Local frogs bite back at toads The Australian December 15, 2004Pete's Points
"A native Australian frog appears to be biting back at the loathed cane toad.
Northern Territory conservationists believe a local amphibian known as Litoria dahlii could be the only native frog able to eat cane toad tadpoles and babies without being harmed by their poison."
Australia should encourage the breeding of Ibis and of this frog in Queensland and in the north of NSW since they seem to be able to eat the toads without being affected by their poison. I would much rather see Ibis walking around and being fattened on toads than see the toads being fattened on other Australian species.
Let's hear if for "The Ibis and The Frog", a new Aussie TV documentary in the making?
