Another excerpt from the New York Times review by Janet Maslin:</div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: medium; display: inline !important"><i>"Ugly even by toad standards, the cane toad is revealed to be an amazingly resourceful creature. It was imported to Australia from Hawaii in 1935 - to illustrate
this, the director, Mark Lewis, shows glimpses of a train trip across Australia from a toad's-eye view - in hopes that it would destroy a grub that threatened the sugar cane crop. But the toads' lack of interest in eating grubs was matched only by their eagerness
to multiply. There are now millions of cane toads in Queensland, descended from an original group of only 101.</i>"</span><br>
