I’m not moving

I found this cane toad while doing some weeding. It looked aggrieved, as they always do, but didn’t budge from its spot. After taking photos, I moved away and the toad finally lumped forward to a quieter spot in the hedge.

Friggin’ Cane Toad. Should have put it in the freezer to kill it then put it in the garbage. That’s the Australian way

I rarely see them here, probably because they’re active at night. Should have put the people who introduced it in the freezer, but too late for that!

        I’m not sure such a thing exists, but I’ll have a look.
