  6. "Like the cane toad, the species was brought into Australia to try and control insects. They first arrived in the 1860s to control pests in market gardens in Melbourne”.

    “They were then introduced to northern Queensland to try and control pests in sugar plantations.”

    The result has been a nightmare for native wildlife, with the mynah species a prolific breeder, seeing each mating pair lay up to 15 eggs per year, overtaking entire towns."

  16. Tonight our teenage daughter asked if we could rewatch the old Cane Toad documentary, An Unnatural History. We’d played it for her when she was much younger and it had stuck with her. It’s still a cracker documentary, in equal measures informative and alarming and hilarious. One of the best. Also, it ends with a theme song written and sung by Tim Finn of Split Enz and Crowded House fame.

    Worth a watch if you’ve not seen it.

  21. This film came up in conversation today and I'm always surprised that no one has seen it. I saw this in a biology class at uni and that is when I learned that documentaries can have a sense of humor.

    And it turns out that someone put it on YouTube so you can enjoy it for free
