A humane person would've found a kinder way to kill it. I hate it that people kill something and then mock it.

Unfortunatly to check you can be cruel and poke it with a stick to see if it puffs up and secrets milky poison or see identifying features http://www.canetoadbattle.com/identification.html.

Keep it in a cage until it warbles then you know what sort it is...

Here's a novel thought.. leave it alone. Most creatures will leave you alone if you do the same to them. Cane toads are highly overrated as being a nuisance to most people.

Unless you've got a puppy running around your yard.

Watching some wildlife prog last night on the top end, and that had to go to many properties to find the wildlife they wanted to film as most places were inflested with cane toads, that had killed most of the local creatures.
