袋蛙生活在哥斯达黎加、中美洲和南美洲的热带雨林地区，那里经常下雨，天气炎热而且非常潮湿。然而在南美洲，那里的人们为了建造房子和开垦农场，正在不断砍伐森林，它的居住地在一点一点地缩小。
因此，像袋鼬这样的动物甚至可以在毒蛙出没的野外环境下 存活下去。
As a result, animals like quolls can survive in the wild even in a toad-infested landscape, " Webb said in a prepared statement.
Shine 和他的同事在四月十三号版的《应用生态学杂志》上写到：“31只经历了食死蛙实验”的袋鼬存活的时间是“毒蛙盲”袋鼬的五倍。”
The 31 who had been introduced to cane toads "survived up to five times longer than 'toad-naïve' quolls, " Shine and his colleagues wrote in the April 13 issue of the Journal of Applied Ecology.
