Battletoads!
I've on occasion, used a 9 iron to put cane toads in my neighbours pool.
:frogbon:
Zeena... is the cane toad, man.

[QUOTE=kartarn;25505735]They're pest, we have no sympathy for them.[/QUOTE] It's like us, possums here are a pest too but we have to kill them humanely. D.O.C traps them in these cages with poison bait stuff. But most people here just shoot them and pluck the fur and sell it.

I think I read Toad Rage Don't remember though maybe I got bored of it half way in
-snip- [editline]20th October 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=ironman17;25525081]Y'know, if they ever mutated to giant size, like the size of cows, you'd need more than a knife and plastic bag. More like a ruddy great broadsword. That'd actually be an interesting and pretty screwed-up scenario; Australia's cane toad population evolving into giant monsters, and loads of people having to go out into the deserts and suburbs to slay the beasts. It'd sure put a big new twist on the cane toad problem.[/QUOTE] Tonight at 8:00 on SyFy [editline]20th October 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=BloodStream;25506914]I'll admit I'm not well informed on the canetoad problem in Australia, but freezing a toad over the course of a few days is NOT humane. I'm not an animal rights activist, and I usually take a fairly apathetic stance on hunting and stuff, but this is almost as bad as the time I went to the Philippines and saw [B]kids buying baby chicks and pulling their eyes out/drowning them/pulling their legs off and watching them squirm.[/B] I understand that Australia probably needs you to do this, it's just a little shocking to see someone linking "humane" to the asphyxiation, freezing, and brutal bludgeoning of the toads.[/QUOTE] Oh that's fucked up. What the fuck is wrong with those kids?

I say turn Koala and Kangaroo into an invasive species by putting them in North America. Will that work?

[QUOTE=BCell;25548017]I say turn Koala and Kangaroo into an invasive species by putting them in North America. Will that work?[/QUOTE] That's fucking stupid, koala's need a specific plant that only grows in Australia,they would all die.
Cane toads are awesome. We had one at our house in South Florida before we moved. Huge motherfucker. He somehow squeezed himself under a ceramic mushroom house meant for regular toads and we discovered him when we lifted the thing up. He was all "Sup bro" We named him Hagrid. [editline]22nd October 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=Boeing787;25505688] Although we are supposed to kill them, they are not protected by Australian wildlife regulations but they ARE covered by animal-welfare laws – so if you do decide to kill a toad you need to do it humanely. Basically wrap it in plastic and chuck it in the freezer for a few days.[/QUOTE] I'd like to know how freezing them to death is human. Why not just shoot them in the head with a pellet rifle or a .22? [editline]22nd October 2010[/editline] [QUOTE=doomkiwi;25524959]Keep in mind I consider myself an environmentalist. Anyone who doesn't want to kill as many cane toads as possible doesn't know shit about their destructive power or hates the environment. I deplore the death of any creature, however I would gladly take up arms against those fuckers if it meant protecting the Australian wildlife. They have tried their hardest to eradicate every animal they have come across and eat anything that will fit in their mouths. Combined with the fact that they don't need all that much water, are filled with poison and are durable as all hell and you've got a problem. [u]Kill the fuckers by any means necessary.[/u][/QUOTE] Alright. Let's nuke Australia Should do the trick

make everyseason toad hunting season and who ever kills the most toads win. that seems like a great way to keep the population down

[editline]22nd October 2010[/editline] [/QUOTE] I think it has something to do with the fact that they are reptiles. Similar like snake breeders put theirs into fridges so that they can hibernate. The toad essentially enters a hibernation from which it doesn't wake up.
[QUOTE=PyromanDan;25524347]This reminds me of a book I read when I was younger, it was about cane toads and the (fictional) story of how they got turned into pancakes and dried out in the sun, and then the younger ones would stack them up in huge stacks back at the village (:confused:)[/QUOTE] Was it called 'Toad Rage'?
