Projected range area and associated 95th percentile maximum temperatures for cane toad invasion dynamics. Range models were produced for nested subsets of toad occurrences collected prior to 1975, 1985, 1995 and 2005. (a) After a period of relative stasis, the model predicted a substantial expansion of projected cane toad suitable habitat area from 1995 to 2005. (b) Over time, cane toads increasingly have colonized warmer regions of Australia, as indicated here by the 95th percentile maximum temperature of all habitats colonized by toads through time.
