Cane toads happily congregate in suburban gardens, feeding at night around outdoor lights. Nature has made them extremely toxic to compensate for their mostly sluggish and clumsy mode of locomotion, which makes them extremely easy to catch.
Reviled by most Australians, they are an unwanted ecological problem at present. Originally introduced here to control an insect pest, they have become a pest themselves. They don't appear to like the cold, and numbers are often reduced after prolonged cool weather.
Although I wish there weren't here, I personally find they all have individual personalities, and some are quite cute.
