This could be bad. I saw a documentary on these creatures in Australia. They are prodigious. They will be everywhere. This could be as bad or worse than the asian carp in the rivers.

I thought it was some new term for California or NY Democrats.

I do believe that is the first time I’ve ever seen the words “adorable” and “toads” used in the same sentence.

[C210N]

Are they lickable?

Bufo toads

"Bufo" is the "family" name for all toads.

[READINABLUESTATE]

No natural predators. Everything that tries to eat one dies.

[9YearLurker]

Lots of poisonous toads in Latin America.

Are you sure it’s not just the Congressional Black Caucus?

We had half a dozen of these nasties in our backyard at any given time. Since they can poison dogs, my parents made it my job to kill them. I started by shooting them with our BB gun, but they could take 6 shots without showing any ill effects.

I finally discovered that if you shine a light at them at night they freeze, at which point I put the BB gun to the back of their head and executed them. Not sporting, but effective.

We would toss the dead toads into the canal. What was really freaky was how often the water would roil where they went in. Something big ate them.

I’m so glad I live in Northern WI. No creepy crawlers. Just deer.

[mewzilla]

Could be worse.

At least it’s not baby Hypnotoads!

Has anyone seen Pharaoh lately?

[gnarledmaw]

Actually not quite the problem they are made out to be. The poison glands are in the shoulders. Humans and some animals are learning to just not eat that part. Convince the Chinese they’ll put the zoom in the zinger and the toads will be near extinct over night.

Possible solution?

[Rappini]

The Maharishi (Rushbo) might talk about these Frogs today.

Everyone get their Pellet guns

Spray em with Amonia.
These creatures breeth through their skin.
It burns.
They scream, shrivel up and croak.

[EdnaMode]

Sounds scary.

[Harpotoo]

Back in the day my dog attacked a big one and started foaming at the mouth. I grabbed a hose an shoved it down her throat and flushed the poison out. She was fine after that and gave us 15 years of love and joy:-)
