Toads

crows. they flip the toad onto its back and peck out its belly. smart bird and doesnt get poisoned!

Native to Central and South America, Cane toads were introduced to Australia from Hawaii in June 1935 by the Bureau of Sugar Experiment Stations in an attempt to control the native cane beetle (Dermolepida albohirtum). These beetles are native to Australia and they are detrimental to sugar cane crops, which are a major source of income for Australia.

Well a tadpole is a fish that turns into a frog later on in life.

Tadpoles also breath underwater.

Frogs can only breath under water for a short period of time.

Nature is weird!

yes, they will. They will hibernate in a aquarium. But make sure you put i lot of outside dirt in there, put some so the toad can bury itself. Frogs dont. If you bought it at a pet shop it wont. It will if you cought it outside.

Snakes are the full grown toads main predator such as the Hognose snake who loves to eat toads (Yumm) and the garter snake who is immune to the toads poison and can digest the poison with no consequence.

I took my baby pacman frog on a 4 1/2 hour flight and he died the next day. I'm not sure if it was the altitude, dehydration, stress, or a combination, but I would not recommend it.

tadpole, poliwog, toad.

their important to the desert beacause they eat like all the flies and other insects and insects

No, spadefoot toads inhabit North American deserts and are not found in the Sahara.

The toad's habitat is mostly dry climates but geographically it is found in Australia , polar regions, Madagascar, Polynesia and other little islands of south America .

They do not.

Instead, they feed on insects, grubs, slugs, worms, and other invertebrates like other amphibians do.

But as tadpoles, the feed on plants.

Under my recent research done in cairo, egypt, i have discovered that indeed the poison in toads is potent enough to kill even the largest of crocodiles. This venomous posion can even kill a T-REX! trust me, im a doctor

Yes, cockroaches will be eaten by frogs. A frog is one of the many natural predators of the cockroach.

no

• I have a lot of American toads! I love toads, they are the best. Frogs like flies more then toads. Toads like beetles, meal worms, and other sorts of insects, but they still will eat flies. They could eat about 190 flies in one summer!

all over north eastern Australia and spreading Carribbean islands, Hawaii and Australia.

I would discourage getting crickets, because they may create problems in your toads' life. My advice? Go out and get some bugs give them termites if you have a problem with termites, try to give them mosquitoes or fruit flies.

Do Sparrows eat toads? Well, Sparrows are small birds they feed on small insects and bird food. It usually depends if a Sparrow will eat a toad usually due to size and the limitations to food in the area. My toad recently passed away, :( but I found two new ones, they are very small and some birds MAY eat small toads, like depending on the size like I already said. So it is basically 50 50.

If you are talking about Rugby League supporters, they have the better side.

If you are talking about the amphibians imported eighty years ago to destroy the sugar cane beetle, it is because they found a rich source of insects other than cane beetles and spread accordingly. Their proliferation should have provided good food for birds and land carnivores, however the poison glands on their back killed off potential predators who learnt to leave them alone, and so they proliferated and spread virtually unchecked by the natural food cycle which controls other creatures.

It is only now that such birds as crows have come to learn to flip them on their backs and eat their underside to avoid the poison, but this activity is so minor at present that the toads are now spreading to the western part of the continent.

cane toads eat all native species like insects and snake eat cane toads but then the snake will die from the poison inside the cane toad and might lead into exiction

The cane toad has had a very negative impact since it was introduced into Australia.

They feed on small native species, and are believed to eat around 200 items of food every night. Because they are prolific, hardy enough to survive a variety of climate and environmental conditions, and are continuing a relentless push south wards, they pose a great threat to native species. As well as ants, beetles and termites, they can also eat frogs, small reptiles, mammals and birds. They compete with native species for food and shelter, and are known to be directly responsible for he decline in a number of native species.

Cane toads have had a major impact on quoll populations in Queensland and the Northern Territory. Quolls are carnivores, and feed on birds, reptiles, arthropods and mammals up to the size of a possum. Habitat loss has resulted in fewer of these species and thus a reduced food source for the quolls, so they have resorted to eating cane toads. Spotted-tail and Northern Quolls are both being killed off as a result of eating the Cane Toad, which is poisonous.
