For the risk of another infringement, goto www.frogs.org.au & do a search, it will come up there but I can't remember exactly what thread/post by Gerry/ARC.
A search will definately find it though.

Why does everyone always question you so much Gary? lol

Yeah was not sure why they are on our license considering they are not native

I questioned because I wanted to see where it was in writing. I also cannot find any information about the legalities of keeping them on that website.

I looked it up too, all I could find about cane toad pets in Australia is that it used to be really common.

According to the Qld DPI website the cane toad (Bufo marinus) is not a declared pest in Queensland so there is no legal requirement to control them.

Cane toads (Queensland Primary Industries and Fisheries)

But it could be a declared pest by your local govenment.

Personaly I say kill it and find something else to put your time and effort in to.

in all seriousness here, I cannot see any harm in keeping a wild cane toad, what harm is it doing sitting in a tub?

I agree, and saying to just kill it and find something better to put your time into are toad rascist ahah just cause they have warts and ooze poison. It's not their fault they're here, we just need to find a way to finally be rid of them.

This is why I was suspended.
A certain person gave another person advise which led to this, which I am now having to rehabilitate. I might get pd off at wildlife being abused like this. I am happy to take another suspension over it. Maybe it's the people who arn't happy to take a suspension over stuff like this who really need to take a long hard look at themselves.

 

[notechistiger]

What is it/what happened, Gary?

 

[garycahill]

ELN with scutes in a bad way & the turtle is basically skin & bone.
All due to improper diet, heating & water quality.
It may be too late for this turtle.

 

[garycahill]

Funny, seems to have gone quiet all of the sudden.

 

[jaliceeee]

Keeping a cane toad as a pet doesn't mean it'll be treated like this.

 

[garycahill]

I am not saying that you would mistreat any animal, I'm sorry if what I said came across that way.
I am just showing why I was suspended.

 

[ryanharvey1993]

as long as you arnt breeding them and letting them go, nobody would care, I think people are worried you will get attached and release toad(s)

just remember, no matter how attached you get, always do whats best for this country.... kill it!

 

[jaliceeee]

Thats alright
Sorry about the turtle
