Well the cane toads were actually introduced by the Austrailian government to get rid of the cane magets that were hurting the cane farmers crops. However, the never actually did this and spread rapidly through out the country. They found the solution to the magets years later and got rid of them with pesticide. Also, this doesn't relate to the question, but all the cane toads in Australia originate from the 12 originals that were brought to the country.
The cane toad is a large subspecies of true toad. It is native to Central and South America, but has been introduced to carribean and oceania islands and parts of Australia and South Florida to help reduce insect populations in sugar cane fields. It was also "milked" for its toxin by Amazon native tribes to be used on arrow heads.
Because there are many key differences, which I can get from another one of my answers due to how lenghty it would be to type it all out. Toads have round bodies that are dry and bumpy. Frogs have thin bodies that are smooth and moist. Toads have short stubby legs that do not jump very far in proportion to body length, while frogs have long legs that jump great distances in proportion to body length. The tadpoles of the toads are generally black, while the tadpoles of frogs are generally brown. Toads live on land and only return to water to mate, while most frogs will live in or near water they're whole lives. Toads have glands behind their eyes called paratoid glands that produce bufotoxin which varies in intensity, while frogs have no such glands. Toads have "warts" which let them store fat, while frogs don't. Frogs' skin can allow them to get small amounts of oxygen, while the toads' skin cannot do that. Toads hibernate in holes they either dig or find, while frogs will just bury themselves in the mud at the bottom of the pond to hibernate. Frogs have longer legs and can jump farther in proportion to body length, while toads have shorter legs and jump less than the frog in proportion to body length.
