"*The area that we caught them is in Old Fort Bay*"

hmmm...

"*if you see a cane toad you should not panic*"

that giant thing that jumps????

"*You should not try to chop it with a machete*"

Well... this the Bahamas... That's what we do. expect calls with people having been squirted with bufotixin after chopping Goliath

"*He said one should put on gloves and place the toads in a plastic bag. The bag, he said, should be put in the freezer for 48 hours in order to euthanize the creatures.*

again. this is the Bahamas. expect nobody to touch a frog. put it in a plastic bag and place in freezer next to the frozen fries.

but good job on protecting the environment

It is this same attitude ( dis da Bahamas and we is Bahamian) that has the Corona Virus sweeping The Bahamas the way it is doing !!!

lol

I just telling you Bahamians een putting no frog in the fridge

That's good and please do not kill them. They are beautiful animals. They help the environment. I have one 8.5 inches that I had imported from Venezuela 5 years ago fir a hefty sum of $500. Yes, they are valuable if they are big. He is now 11 inches and 4 1/2 pounds. His name is King Kane, the Cane Toad. I love him, he loves me. If the lady in this newspaper article picture sends me that one, I'll pay $300 US Dollars. Don't hurt them or you are murderers. Peace out, love from Pennsylvania!!!

this is where planning comes in. Know who you dealing with. Anticipate their response and mitigate. For the Rona they should have been testing at the border. For the frogs...get some antivenom ready

What if the 20-pound toad decides it does not want to go into your plastic bag? Won’t it get angry and squirt poison on you anyway? Is this *really* the best advice y’all have? I vote for the machete.

20-pound Cane Toad vs My 12 gauge shotgun: Place your bets!

Then again, that might leave a little too much clean up work for me to do.

Yes, then the fact that it's an invasive species means that it has no local predators to keep it in check... just like the lion fish.<br/>
These people need to stop **importing** these fancy plants, that have fancy eggs that they can't see hidden in them...that produce fancy frogs... that squirt fancy poison and endanger native animals.<br/><br/>
Next thing we'll hear, is that they accidentally imported a poisonous snake. I'm happy to know that our native creatures are not poisonous. WE DON'T NEED any more INVASIVE SPECIES brought here by ACCIDENT!!<br/>
They need to monitor imports more closely and have these things SANITIZED better to kill eggs and the like, **before** bringing them here. SMH

Kiss the frog, it might turn into a prince? ha ha...

The cane toad was first discovered in Lyford Cay in 2013, breeds twice a year, laying up to 35,000 eggs each time.......And they're happy about catching 400 of them???

**The Plague of the Toads**

**As adapted from Exodus 8:1-15:**

Then the LORD said to Davis, "Go to Minnis and say to him, 'Thus says the LORD, "Let My people go, free them from lockdown so that they may serve Me. "But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite you and your supporters with poisonous toads. "You and yours will swarm with poisonous toads, which will come up and go into your house and into your bedroom and on your bed, and into the houses of your servants and your supporters, and into their ovens and into their kneading bowls."

Ha, ha,ha, brilliant! :)

I found it hillarious reading an article in today's Tribune about Acting Deputy Magistrate Andrew Forbes fining some poor singer $300 for the use of language that purportedly caused public terror. The singer was also hit with an additional fine of $150 for violent language - total $450. This naturally begs the question: Is our most 'incompetent authority', who has quite literally terrorized us time and time again with his ridiculously irrational and arbitrary orders, immune from being charged and fined for having caused so much public terror? Our most 'incompetent authority' has certainly incited the use of a lot of expletively laden violent language by the more unfairly treated and frustrated among us.

Trapping Frog .......Find container like plastic bucket/pail even strudy box.....put container in front of you as shield and place container over frog trapping it.......then place heavy weight on top of container to prevent container wid trapped captured frog knocking it over and escaping......after trapped frog then get flat inflexible carboard or mabye cover of container and slide it under bucket gently not allowing any space for frog to escape...turn over bucket slowly as wid pressire to keep cover sealing bucket and then put weight on top..... .Viola.!....

You clearly don't know that these poisonous critters can jump 10 feet with little effort when they feel threatened. And heaven forbid they land on you after they jump.

...thanx........er......for reason cant catch it jumping towards me/likely reasonable catcher if brave to go head on.....amended technique......I would go after trapping frog behind or direction in case of frog jumping...it would do so in direction of your yard...where it would be efficiently, effectively disposed....jus dont invite me over for any "mountain.chicken" food.......lol.

If you hurt one, 100 will come and spray you, your family and your pets and all of you will be blinded for 24 hours, the pets will not survive. Kill some iguanas or geckos. Toads are man's best friends. Long live Rhinella Marinas!!! Si matas un sapo de cana, eres un Asesino y mereces la carcel o mas, muerte!

oh boy :-/...clearly you didn't see the footage of the sharks. Frightened people can be fairly violent. Keep Kane safe in Pennsylvania

I hope they aren't killing all the cane toads. Honestly could make good money selling them to people such as me to keep as pets. Toxic. Yes but nothing to worry about much at all. they mainly have a habit of peeing on you first and puffing up the dramatic chonkers. They scare easily. I believe the fatter the cuter. Females get the biggest. They are really chill and easy to care for. I wonder if they caught one well over 6 inches and many pounds. I'd love to have her😄

These toxic critters are very much like the illegal Haitian aliens. They came into our country illegally via the back door and once they got here they started multiplying like crazy.

Wow I've never heard of a cane toad. A 20 lb toad. I would scream if I saw one and they are poisonous.
