A record-breaking giant toad has been discovered in Conway National Park in Queensland, Australia.

Park ranger Kylee Gray was “shocked” to spot the huge cane toad during a patrol deep in the rainforest earlier this month.

Kylee and her colleagues caught the vast animal and brought it back to their office, where it weighed in at 2.7 kg, earning it the nickname Toadzilla.

Guinness World Records lists the largest toad at 2.65 kg, a 1991 record set by a Swedish pet.

Toadzilla has now been euthanised and its body donated to the Queensland Museum for research.

호주 퀸즐랜드의 콘웨이 국립공원에서 기록적인 거대한 두꺼비가 발견되었습니다.

공원 레인저 카일리 그레이(Kylee Gray)는 이달 초 열대 우림 깊숙한 곳을 순찰하던 중 거대한 지팡이 두꺼비를 발견하고 "충격"을 받았습니다.

Kylee와 그녀의 동료들은 거대한 동물을 잡아 사무실로 가져 와서 무게가 2.7kg으로 Toadzilla라는 별명을 얻었습니다.

기네스 세계 기록에는 스웨덴 애완 동물이 세운 1991 년 기록 인 2.65kg으로 가장 큰 두꺼비가 나와 있습니다.

Toadzilla는 현재 안락사되었으며 그 시신은 연구를 위해 퀸즐랜드 박물관에 기증되었습니다.
