Comparisons through time and space suggest rapid evolution of dispersal behaviour in an invasive species. (2009, background): “Cane toads in Queensland populations are nomadic (Alford et al. 1995; Schwarzkopf and Alford 2002), and have rates of dispersal, and therefore range expansion, more similar to those of other anuran species than are those of the Northern Territory invasion-front animals (Smith and Green 2005; Phillip”
Dispersal behaviour in fragmented landscapes: Routine or special movements? (2005, background): “A dichotomous response of resident and dispersive individuals has recently been found in crayfish (Barbaresi et al., 2004) and cane toads (Schwarzkopf & Alford, 2002).”
Movement ecology of amphibians: A missing component for understanding population declines (2014, background): “, 2006), and may be modeled discretely using random walks (Codling et al., 2008; Conradt and Roper, 2006; Schwarzkopf and Alford, 2002).”
Intraspecific variation in movement patterns: modeling individual behaviour in a large marine predator (2004, unknown): “For example in the cane toads, Bufo martinus, some individuals are nomadic, while others remain in a single small area for most of their existence (Schwarzkopf and Alford 2002).”
