Katak gergasi sebesar bola sepak ditemui
27-03-2007 08:43:45 PM | DARWIN, Australia: Sekumpulan aktivis alam sekitar yang cuba membasmi sejenis katak besar yang beracun dan memusnahkan spesies-spesies haiwan lain terkejut dengan penemuan seekor katak gergasi sebesar bolasepak, lapor agensi berita Associated Press hari ini.
Pertubuhan sukarela itu, Frogwatch, menemui katak itu sepanjang 40sm (15 inci) dalam satu projek pemusnahan di sebuah kolam di pinggir Darwin, sebuah kota di utara Australia, semalam.
Bersaiz sebesar bola sepak atau anjing kecil dengan berat hampir 1kg, "katak gergasi" itu antara spesimen terbesar yang pernah ditangkap di negara negara tersebut, kata penyelaras Forgwatch, Graeme Sawyer.
Spesies katak itu, dikenali "katak tebu", dibawa masuk ke negara itu dari Amerika selatan pada 1930-an untuk mengawal kumbang di ladang-ladang tebu.
Katak beracun itu merosakkan sistem alam sekitar benua kecil itu, dengan membunuh berjuta-juta binatang tempatan termasuk ular dan buaya yang memakannya.
Dalam projek 'Pemusnah Kodok', Frogwatch mencari binatang bertoksik itu di kawasan berair, kemudian menyilaukannya dengan cahaya terang sebelum mengutipnya.
Sawyer berkata kumpulannya membunuh katak itu dengan gas karbon dioksida, kemudian menyimpannya di dalam peti sejuk yang besar sebelum ia diproses dengan baja cecair untuk membuang kesan toksik.
"Ia boleh menjadi baja yang sensasi," tambahnya.

Group finds toad the size of a small dog
DARWIN, Australia - An environmental group said Tuesday it had captured a "monster" toad the size of a small dog.
With a body the size of a football and weighing nearly 2 pounds, the toad is among the largest specimens ever captured in Australia, according to Frogwatch coordinator Graeme Sawyer.
"It's huge, to put it mildly," he said. "The biggest toads are usually females but this one was a rampant male ... I would hate to meet his big sister."
Frogwatch, which is dedicated to wiping out a toxic toad species that has killed countless Australian animals, picked up the 15-inch-long cane toad during a raid on a pond outside the northern city of Darwin late Monday.
Cane toads were imported from South America during the 1930s in a failed attempt to control beetles on Australia's northern sugar cane plantations. The poisonous toads have proven fatal to Australia's delicate ecosystems, killing millions of native animals from snakes to the small crocodiles that eat them.
As part of its so-called "Toad Buster" project, Frogwatch conducts regular raids on local water holes, blinding the toads with bright lights then scooping them up by the dozen.
"We kill them with carbon dioxide gas, stockpile them in a big freezer and then put them through a liquid fertilizer process" that renders the toads nontoxic, Sawyer said.
"It turns out to be sensational fertilizer," he added. |
