The yellowish brown cane toads, also known as bufo, marine or giant toads, are making an appearance in South Florida after the recent heavy rains stirred them up from their burrows and gave them plenty of water to breed in. The cane toads can also cause environmental damage. Cane toads also compete with native frogs for food and breeding areas. And much like other invasive species such as the voracious Burmese python, cane toads do well in Central and South Florida’s urban environments. As it turned out, cane toads can’t jump very high, so they couldn’t eat the beetles that lived in the upper stalks of the plants.
