These are from Suriname and a totally different species to the cane toad bufo marinus. These toads get much larger than cane toads and are the worlds biggest toad. |

They are very easy to keep indeed.
The problem is finding them I was looking for years to aquire some and now I have some spare as well. Apparently the area they are found is quite dangerous and collectors tend not to go there so this is why you don't really see them. |
