Actually I would think it worse. One of the most efficient ways to kill a snake is to flatten its head with a brick... not a lot different to killing a toad with a golf club.

Cane toads could be harvested for their meat... mostly the legs, and there is a good market for them!

He has Burms?
I dont understand why they cut its head off when they could have just killed it instantly with blunt trauma as they did soon after cutting off its head :? im guessing since they are new to it they havnt put much thought into killing them.
It would take an extremely precise hit to humanely kill a toad with a golfing hit, Tiger Woods would be able to do it humanely, they average redneck wouldnt. You can kill them humanely with a bit of coordination by bashing down on their heads, a golf club would be broken from doing this, a strong wooden or bamboo stick is ideal, but you stil have to hit the head without splattering poison into your eyes(this requires more skill and power than many would have). The best way to kill them is much similar to how you kill a rat with blunt trauma only you hold the legs instead of the tail and hit them twice as hard. The other humane option is shooting the base of the skull, but that isnt legal in many situations.
Also they are being exported for meat and poison(well they call it medicine in China)

Wood opened a flat plastic container and pulled out a 7-foot python he caught near a levee. He placed the snake on the cement floor as journalists' cameras clicked, allowing the snake to coil around his arm and bite his Kevlar-coated snake-handling boots.
Zarmati, 23, is a snake expert and dealer. He breeds ball pythons — a smaller breed not considered a threat — and sells them from his house in Miami.
After playing with the snake for the cameras, it was time to kill it. They brought it into another room with a slippery wet floor and a long table stacked with skinned alligators that resembled uncooked chickens in color and texture.
As Zarmati held the struggling snake down on a table, Wood raised a hatchet and cut off its head. The top four inches of the snake continued to wriggle, the mouth opening and closing. Asked how long the top half would take to die, Zarmati said, "It can take about 30 minutes."

The exact same thing probably happens to the rats your snake eats. Stop acting so precious...

I never torture the rat for 1/2 an hour after playing with it.
If he killed them humanely there would not be an issue.
OK.Burms as in Burmese pythons?
Don't treat me like an idiot.
