Toad ID - Labeled as "Rhinella maxima" but it looks an outdated name

Cane Toad looks right. Where was the photo taken? The current name of the species is Rhinella marina (formerly Bufo marinus) and although Rana maxima is a very old synonym (from the early 1800s) I think it is most likely the sign-writer here simply misread "Rhinella marina" as "Rhinella maxima".
