NT: Desperately seeking ... more ugly, toxic cane toads
Darwin's unique new cane toad fertiliser is facing an unexpected hitch.
Experts can't find enough of the warty pests.
A trial batch of Australia's first toad juice has been hailed such a success .. the
fertiliser producer wants another 14 tonnes of dead cane toads to market it commercially.
The toad extract .. said to do wonders for banana and paw paw plants .. was conceived
as a way of disposing of hundreds of thousands of rotting cane toad carcasses as the pest
invades Darwin.
