"Cane Toad" movie :)

[Paul Adams]

My boss is an Aussie and explained to me history behind the "cane toad" which was introduced into northern Australia to remove some nasty bugs they had... only the toads refused to eat them, they are ugly, poisonous (to eat) and have no natural predators so have a population explosion.

Common sports involving the cane toad are based around the use of a golf club and playing the alternative role in a game of Frogger.

Then he showed me this very well-produced 4-minute movie about the happy little critter

You can put salt on them and let them explode I think...

Give your cat too much salt, and its fur will start to drop off!

Which reminds me... did they ever find out the cause of the German toads exploding? Are they still exploding?

That reminds me of my Bro who used to spit on Slugs to watch them swell up... ugh horrible to watch, never made on explode though



Cool vid btw

lol, funny.

When I was a kid (like 5 or something) I used put salt on slugs, and drown ants in washing up liquid (like put circles of washing up liquid around them, the circle would either get smaller and start to over flow the ants, or the ants would try and escape and get stuck in it. mwuhahaha.

anybody else seriously want a remake of that movie starring the crazy frog instead?

i would probably pay to see that, although lets hope if one is made they dont make us pay!
