Wow! That toad is so big they couldn't fit it in the frame of the photo!

Let me know when a sparrow-sized moth is found.

That is more cane toad than you could smack with even a Great Big Bertha. That is a graphite shaft bendin', titanium head dentin' poisonous mutha of an amphibian.

Toadzilla was caught during a community hunt in Darwin

Darwin, how ironic.

It seldom turns out well when a non-native creature is introduced to control another.

essexjan -maybe the two beasts should battle each other, become friends, and fight crime.

another creature of the native persuasion that is. :)

If the toads start getting that big on a regular basis then maybe the Aussie's could start hunting them for sport!

I assumed Smart Dalek was talking about one of these.

That's too small.
This is closer to sparrow sized.

I love the Atlas moth. I've always wanted to raise them, but I don't know where to get the eggs.
