Here's an intriguing little story involving a bloke from the top end called Graeme Sawyer, who coordinates a cane toad monitoring organization called FrogWatch.
Wrong title don't you think? Shouldn't it be ToadWatch?
In any case I can't see the point of it. I mean, isn't it clear from the recent FuelWatch fiasco that merely watching cane toad numbers won't make them go down?
But that's a side issue. The meat of the yarn is that Saunders just witnessed a bizarre food chain inversion. See, one of the fat, fugly invaders turned the tables on its only known Oz predator (a keelback snake) and wolfed it down. Saunders seems to think it was a really bad omen for our ecological future.
Could be, I suppose ... Or maybe they were just fakin' it to screw with his head?
