Cane Toad Tactile Exhibit Replica – UV-Sealed, High-Touch Model

Cane Toad (Rhinella marina) is a durable, high-touch tactile replica designed for indoor or outdoor use in nature centers, museums, parks, and hands-on exhibits. The model is covered in a layer of resin, hand painted, and sealed with a UV-protective clear coat to withstand frequent handling in busy public spaces while staying easy to clean and maintain. Finished with biologically accurate coloration and texture, it creates a true-to-life learning experience visitors can see and feel. Interpretively, it’s a powerful tool for discussing introduced vs. invasive species, human impacts and pet releases, and ecosystem consequences—with touchable features like body texture, parotoid glands, and overall form that pair perfectly with reading rails or waysides for accessible, inclusive learning.
