as buffo toads, are yet another invasive(入侵) species that has found a hospitable home in warm southern Florida. Deliberately introduced from South and Central America in the 1930s they were supposed to control beetles damaging the sugarcane crop-that's how they got the name "cane toads". ...
Hence, the impact of cane toad invasion on this top predator may increase with increasing aridity.Mike Letnic and Jonathan K. Webb and Richard ShineBiological ConservationLetnic M, Webb JK, Shine R (2008) Invasive cane toads (Bufo marinus) cause mass mortality of freshwater crocodiles (Croc-...
Cane toads were introduced to Australia in the 1930s. Sugar farmers thought they would help in eradicating a beetle that was devastating their crops. However, the toads soon began to wreak havoc as they rapidly spread across the countryside. They ate many insects and small animals to the point...
Everybody loves to hate invasive species. The international list of invasive species—defined as those that were introduced by humans to new places, and then 1 — runs to over 4,000. In Australia and New Zealand hot war is fought against introduced creatures like cane toads (蔗蟾蜍) and ra...

摘要: 1. If a species is translocated outside its native range, some of its traits (evolved to match conditions in the ancestral range) likely will be maladaptive. Identifying ways in which the invader are poorly suited to its new range might provide novel opportunities for biocontrol.关键词:...

Other examples include measures to control invasive species like feral cats and cane toads, such as paying field staff and buying fuel, ammunition, traps and poisons. Our previous research put the global cost of invasive species at A$1.7 trillion. But this is most certainly a gross ...
In addition to simply out-competing other native species, cane toads are poisonous, meaning the predators that do eat cane toads often die. Even camels have become feral in the Australian outback. Originally brought to Australia to carry supplies through the desert, there are now several hundred...
