PEOPLE, maybe its just me, when people are simply saying cane toad, it worries me.
DONT LICK ANY OLD BLOODY toad.. thats really dumb.
there is only one truely 'lickable' toad. others will make you very ill, or even kill ya.
Dont assume any toad will do, lol
sorry but thats the understanding im starting to get from people on this thread.
do some reaserch firsst fools! lol

i do think smoking DMT is crap, just dab or drop much more reliable, lol

dunno about only, but safest is Bufo alivarius, others can give hallucinogenic effects BUT will also make you horribly sick and ill. most frogs/ toads will make you ill from what i udnerstand...but im not an amphibian keeper

having lived in queensland australia for 6 years and seeing the cane toads up close, yes they are toxic, but you would have to be some kind of idiot to try and lick a cane toad. unless you like hospital that is?

Snake Pliskin, I'm interested to know, did this habit originate in Oz and did its practitioners frequently end up in hospital? I know bufotoxin and the other chemicals are, well, toxic! but I just wondered if you had seen this a lot in the papers over there or whatever.

Interesting thought.... "mountain chicken" is frog and presumably eaten without either hallucinations or sickness. On the other hand Japanese chefs have to cook puffer fish very carefully or the customer dies. Wonder how the toxins in these two animals differs, or in the cooking.

Anyone got Delia Smith's number?
