An interesting strategy used in Australia, is to drop cane toad baits ahead of the encroaching population so that native species don’t eat them, and reducing population loss – which is the main problem.

> The aim is for animals to become sick from eating the baits, teaching them to avoid the toads just as the pest moves into their habitats.

There is obviously a long tradition of trying to stop the negative effects of invasive species, especially as it affects livestock and crops. Sometimes with chemicals, sometimes by introducing "natural enemies" in the environment, and now also as in your example by sometimes teaching livestock to avoid the new menace. Many times causing other, sometime serious, problems instead.

I'm not saying let nature have its course at all times, only that over time nature will likely solve the problem of an invasive species in its own way, and we should learn to expect it and work with it.

I think with cane toads, the lethality and sheer number has very different implications. There are many species in Australia that are on the brink of extinction, whereas in other continents that have been affected longer by human intervention the species loss has already happened.

>nature has always found a way to keep them in check

Often that looks something like 'they hunted their prey to extinction and then their numbers levelled out'

> We have no, and will not have, any natural enemies.

As the Romans said " homo homini lupus" - Man is wolf to man.

With a bit of greed and a nuclear war the chances of survival for other species will greatly increase.
