“…Bufotenine and other tryptamine derivatives are principle constituents of the parotid gland secretions of New World toads belonging to the genus Bufo, for which the compound was named when first isolated. Curiously, DMT or 5-MeO-DMT has not been reported from any Bufo species, with a single exception: Bufo alvarius, which contains 5-MeO-DMT instead of bufotenine; rather staggering concentrations of up to 10 % dry weight of the parotid gland have been reported by some investigators (Daly and Witkop 1971;Weil and Davis 1994).…”

“…Black kites have a large geographic distribution in Africa, Asia, and Europe where other species of toads naturally occur, while whistling kites have a more limited range (Australian and parts of Papua New Guinea). Bufotoxins of different toad species are chemically similar (Chen and Chen 1933;Daly and Witkop 1971;Meyer and Linde 1971) and thus coevolution with other toad taxa may have preadapted Australian raptors to dealing with the poisons of cane toads.…”
