We held our cane toad bust last night and collected a total of … drum roll please … 274 cane toads 👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉👏🎉
That is 27 more than our bust two years ago where we caught 247 (I believe this is called an anagrammed number when the same digits are rearranged 🤓).

Thank you to all the gap locals who gave up a couple of hours on their Sunday night to help our native wildlife 👏 It was lovely to meet you all.

Thank you also to Brisbane City Council Habitat Brisbane, Cr Steven Toomey, Save Our Waterways Now and Watergum for their support in running this event.

Our next working bee is Sunday 15th Feb 8am - 10am and we meet near the dog parks. Hope to see you there!
