Giant Toad
The Giant Toad, also known as the Cane Toad, is a large amphibian native to Central and South America. It can grow up to 9 inches long and has a distinctive warty skin. This toad is primarily nocturnal and feeds on insects, small mammals, and other invertebrates.
Introduced to various regions, including Australia and Florida, the Giant Toad has become an invasive species, impacting local ecosystems. Its toxic secretions can be harmful to predators, including pets. Conservation efforts are ongoing to manage its population and mitigate its effects on native wildlife.
