Habitat
Cane toads are from South America, but were introduced to Australia to kill the cane beetle which was eating all the sugar cane. Unfortunately, the cane toads failed to do their job and became a pest. Cane toads live in open areas such as farmlands, sand dunes, woodlands and rainforests.
Cane toads like moist, warm environments and can survive in many harsh conditions such as droughts. Most cane toads are active at night during the warmer months but take shelter in the day and when the weather is dry and cold.
