The introduced creature brought to Queensland to control sugar cane insect pests is the cane toad (Rhinella marina). It was introduced in 1935 to combat the greyback cane beetle and the Frenchi beetle, which were damaging sugar cane crops. However, the cane toad became an invasive species, leading to significant ecological disruptions and negative impacts on native wildlife.
