Have you found a native frog?  

Many of our native frogs can easily be mistaken for cane toads. One reason is because many of these frogs burrow and only emerge after rain, giving the impression that they have suddenly ‘arrived’ in an area.
Below are some examples of our native frogs to help you identify if the amphibian you have found is a friend or foe.
