Keep cane toads out of Kimberley

cane toad

Kimberley Land Council’s Land & Sea Unit Staff have developed cane toad information for Aboriginal communities in the Kimberley to raise awareness of the threats of the cane toad on bush animals, country and culture.

The project was funded by the Envirofund, the Department of Environment and Heritage with in-kind contributions from Kimberley Land Council, Dept of Agriculture, West Australian Museum and Dept of Environment.

You can get a 20-page booklet that shows the difference between cane toad eggs and native Kimberley frogs and their eggs.

It also includes tips on how to kill cane toads—such as catching and freezing them—so they can’t harm native bush animals, people or pets when they’re dead and what your community can do to keep the pest of the Kimberley.
