Are considered vulnerable
due to the cane toads toxins
within their glands
01:53
Cane toads have left species
meaning they have become vulnerable
or endangered
01:58
Why do we care about the impact that cane toads have
on Australian native wildlife?
02:04
Cane toads have such a large affect on our
native species like birds, frogs and crocodiles
as most are endangered which will lead to extension

This could harm Australia's food chain and affect
the native Australian culture
02:34
Locally the NSW Government (DPE)
have advised that people remove
anything with standing water, bring
in their pet food and keep your lights
off outside.

They also advise and demonstrate
the humane ways you can kill
a cane toad otherwise to
contact your local NPWS
office

By helping the spread locally
this will help the state thrive.

To continue this commitment
every year the council deploy
cane toad detection dogs that
regularly search with a handler
that educates the locals on
prevention matters
03:35
By promoting the affects cane toads have on Australia’s native
wildlife this could create new ideas on how to eradicate them
03:45
Nationally there is nothing being done
to continue the eradication of cane
toads which will affect the
environment and biodiversity
will continue to decline
03:56
The state and local levels are both advising
people with instructions on what to do to
prevent cane toads, but they are not doing
anything to eradicate them.
04:05
This is why we need to do something about the migration of cane
toads so they stop destroying our native wildlife and ecosystems.
