Question

How many babies do cane toads have?

Answer 1

Cane toads lay their eggs in still or slow flowing water. Females can produce between 8,000 – 35,000 eggs at a time and usually breed twice a year. The eggs hatch after a couple of days and tiny tadpoles emerge.

Answer 2

Cane Toads have tough, leathery skin with a distinctly warty appearance. They have a bony ridge above the nostril and a pronounced, venom-producing gland behind the ear. The back colour is variable but usually grey, brown, reddish-brown or yellow and the belly is white with grey mottling. This species obtains a large size, up to 26 cm and weighing 2.5 kg, but specimens of this size are rare.
