Thank you Ashley and Mark for the ID.

I think it starts well behind the head on youngsters. Could be the angle too.

Cane Toads have pretty pronounced cranial crests, I don't see any on this toad. Could be the angle, but I don't think they are there.

Sure looks like a cane toad to me. We have far too many. http://www.watoday.com.au/wa-news/more-c...

Thank you Ashley for taking time to look at my spottings from the Lacandon Rainforest, the last high rainforest in North America.

Unfortunately this looks like a young one so I'm not having any luck with an ID. It's a Bufo, that's as far as I can get though
