For what environmental reasons was the cane toad introduced to Australia What went wrong?

The cane toad was introduced to Australia in 1935 to control agricultural pests, specifically the cane beetle, which was damaging sugarcane crops. However, the introduction went wrong as cane toads became an invasive species, lacking natural predators in their new environment. Their rapid population growth and toxic nature led to significant declines in native wildlife, as many animals that attempted to prey on them were killed or affected by their toxins. This disruption of the ecosystem has had lasting negative impacts on biodiversity in Australia.
