Cane Toads lay large numbers of eggs, many more than our native species. Cane toads lay up to 50,000 eggs, ten times more eggs than our native species such as Cyclorana australis (Giant Frog) approx 5000 eggs or Litoria caerulea (Green Tree Frog) 2000 eggs. Cane toad eggs are laid in strings and can be removed from water relatively easily. This may be one way to help limit toad numbers in your neighbourhood
