About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

Cane toads are unfortunately common across Gold Coast where they cause declines in native wildlife, poison domestic pets and have negative impacts on our local agricultural industries. Come along to our webinar and learn about how cane toads impact biodiversity in your own backyard, and what you can do to help!


We will give you tips on how to control cane toads effectively and humanely in your area, including how to start your very own toad busting group! This webinar will also introduce our new citizen science study, where the community can actively contribute to advancing cane toad control and shaping future strategies!


Join us on Thursday, 28th October 2024 at 6.00pm to 8.00pm (AEST) via Microsoft Teams to learn how to control cane toads at every life stage, identify native frogs vs cane toads, toad proof your waterbodies and create habitat for native frogs and other wildlife!


Spaces are limited so please register to attend!
