In Sydney, Australia, located a giant frog, a brown and warty species, with the length of a human arm.
Intruder in a coastal park, park rangers found, removed and eventually sacrificed one rana which weighed 2.7 kilos.
Known as rana cururu, it is an amphibian and was located when a snake forced park personnel to stop while driving inside Conway National Park, in the north of the Queensland region.
The biologist stated that she was walking through the forest and tripped over something dense and large.
When we looked into the ground, we encountered the animal and were surprised when we noticed its unusual characteristics.

These cane toads were sent to Queensland in 1935 to help control a plague of scars.
However, they will have devastating consequences for other species on the site.
According to the Queensland Department of Environment and Sciences in a statement, with a weight of more than 2.7 kg, in comparison with the weight of a new born baby, it rana can break the record of animals that pose the highest weight.
I was named “Toadzilla” given by the team, due to her size, which could be female, as she grows more than males.
Being an extremely rare case, the biologist mentions that it rana cururu You can live for 15 years in nature.
Describe the animal as a true “monster“.
Animal sacrificed.
Being native to Central and South America, more than 2,400 of them were introduced into Australia in 1935.
To help reduce the scars that are destroying sugar cane plantations in Queensland.
After that, cururu deposits multiplied and increased to around 200 million in Australia.
As a result, the number of predators in some national parks has begun to decrease.
Convirtiéndose in a plaga, for this reason the Department of Environment decided to sacrifice it.
The institution anticipated that his dissected body could be sent to the Museo de la Ciudad.
