Official Proposes ‘Kill a Toad’ Day
It’s not often that a government official calls upon a nation to go on a killing spree. But Australian Minister of parliament Shane Knuth was so fed up with the country’s cane toad problem, he plans to propose a national toad killing day.
Although the campaign sounds like a call to arms, the event will most likely resemble a collective Easter egg hunt rather than a deer hunt. Knuth, who admitted to taking out his angst by pelting the critters with golf clubs, recommended that the toads be shoved into plastic bags and tossed in the freezer — a method he felt was more “humane.””
Ok, this problem sounds like it sucks ass. Send Beavis and Butthead down there to play some frog baseball. Just kidding.
Are these things edible? Couldn’t they have a bigass toad BBQ?
HELL NO.
The Cane Toad is now considered a pest in many of its introduced regions, because its toxic skin kills many native predators when ingested. It has many negative effects on farmers because of pets and animals eating the creatures. “

I can’t imagine that toad golf would really work out for you. Sounds like the payoff on that is not good. I’m not sure I want to be splattered in toad guts. I’m not saying that I wouldn’t feel the urge to pull out the Big Bertha, but Knuth is pretty hardcore.
I don’t understand why Australian kids are coming up so weak here. Shit, send over a crew of American kids with some Blackcats. American kids just looooove to blow up small animals. You’d have toadguts blasted everywhere. Problem solved.
