...isn't that how the cane toad problem came to be in the first place!? I wonder what they'll pick....hopefully something more fun and better able to defend itself against the great Aussie bogan!

That was the point I was trying to make. A bunch of Australians, not originally indigenous to the land, having in the past killed off or displaced most of those who were, decide to complain about an invading bird species, not originally indigenous to the land, having killed off or displaced most of those that were.

It wasn't all that long ago that the English were involved in massacres against the Indians as well (and to think that Australians get all the wrap for persecuting Indians).
Also how many Afrikaners were slaughtered by the English in the late 1800s not all that long after the aborigines were being massacred in Australia?
And how many Irish were killed by the British?

Had some great times there as a kid so had very mixed feelings about it.

About nine felines have been consumed in backyards across Cairns in the past five weeks. The culprits are scrub pythons, hungry for prey that has been flushed out of the city’s rainforests and bushy areas because of heavy rainfall.
