AUSTRALIA-SCIENCE-ANIMAL-TOAD-ENVIRONMENT
A handout photo from the Charles Darwin Museum taken in August 2006 and received on July 3, 2013 shows a fully grown adult male dwarf crocodile, around 1.4 m total length, in the Bullo River in Australia's Northern Territory. Australia's noxious cane toad is wiping out populations of a unique miniature crocodile, researchers warned on July 3, 2013, with fears the warty, toxic creature could extinguish the rare creature. A team from Charles Darwin University studying the impacts of the foul toad in upstream escarpments found "significant declines" in numbers of dwarf freshwater crocodiles after the amphibians' arrival.
