description: "Walter Wilson Froggatt was an Australian economic entomologist.\nDuring his final years, Froggatt was the only solid public opponent of the ultimately disastrous introduction of the poisonous cane toad into Queensland to control beetle pests in sugar cane – a view which cost him many supporters in Australia's Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), among fellow economic entomologists, and even in the newspapers of the day."
