The Kimberley Toad Busters Inc. are the only truly totally volunteer group on the ground fighting to stop the toad from crossing into WA.
For the first time in 73 years, a totally volunteer force, with the help of the Department of Environment and Conservation field team have the ability to 'slow' the
cane toad front line while government and scientists find a 'biological' solution to the relentless march of the cane toad.
Kimberley Toad Busters is as much about gathering scientific data as it is about 'busting' toads.

"It is important to recognise that the pristine terrestrial and aquatic habitat systems of the Kimberley are already under threat. Current land care and resource management policies undertaken by land and resource managers have had a detrimental impact on Kimberley biodiversity. Most of our plant and animal biodiversity is in a fragile state. The impact of the cane toad, if allowed to happen, will literally destroy one of the last unique biodiversity wilderness frontiers in Australia," Lee Scott-Virtue.
