How do you control cane toads?
To reduce the number of cane toads in your area you need to get rid of them faster than they can replace the numbers you are removing. What we know: 1. A female Cane toad can produce around 30,000 eggs in a single clutch, so the few toads that you missed can rapidly replace all the ones you removed. 2. Toads are each others worst enemies (They eat each other, compete, and so on) so the more toads you remove the better things are for the ones you leave behind. Basically what I think is that you should remove the female toads first and then the male toads and get rid of any eggs or move them to a new place.
Do red bellied toads have poison?
I believe you mean fire bellied toads. FBT's have poison glands on the side of their heads. They look like small bulges. They can also have them on their upper back. If the toad is not green, the poison glands on their back are light green. You can see poison as a yellow color in their water if left unchanged. The toads squirt out poison if they feel that they are in danger.
How does a rattlesnake get their venom?
Their poison is a fluid stored in venom glands in the back of their mouth that will automatically refill itself - so they basically make it themselves. Some snakes, however, like the Tiger Snake, can sequester the toxins from the animals that they eat. Tiger Snakes sequester bufadienolide compounds from the toxic toads they eat. When they are found in an environment without these toads, however, they lack the toad's toxic bufadienolide compounds completely. The mother snake can pass these toxin to young, in the egg, and confer a degree of protection to their young. Additionally, the snakes that eat toads seem to know they have an additional degree of defense. They will stand and defend their territory. Snakes on a nearby island, lacking bufadienologenous toads, lack these compounds, lay eggs, bearing young, also lacking bufadienolide compounds completely. These snakes tend to flee when challenged. Its unusual for animals to sequester defensive toxins. Poison Darts Frogs, and Mantella Frogs from Madagascar eat ants possessing an alkaloid the frog sequesters in its skin, that confers defensive abilities. Garter snakes are known to sequester tetrodotoxin from poisonous newts in it's diet, and birds in New Guinea sequester toxins from the insects they eat.

Is a toad the same thing as a frog?
It is a toad. The American toad is the common toad. There is also a common frog. Don't get them mixed up! The same is true in the UK: we have common toads which are toads, and common frogs which are frogs. Confusion begins to arise in the tropics, where iconic species like poison-arrow frogs could really be classed as toads due to their ability to crawl/climb. True frogs always hop.
