Thanks for the heads-up Jolly. Looks like there aren't really many places where it has been updated.
The cane toad's scientific name has been changed to Rhinella marina. http://www.iucnredlist.org/details/41065/0
Nice spotting! I think this is B. marinus, an invasive species in your area, which is highly poisonous!
