Poison dart frogs are renowned for their striking colors and potent toxins. These vibrant amphibians are primarily found in Central and South America. Their bright colors serve as a warning to potential predators about their toxicity.
Did you know? The golden poison dart frog, one of the most toxic animals in the world, has enough poison to kill 10 adult humans! However, not all dart frogs are poisonous; those in captivity are often nontoxic due to their controlled diet.
Many species of poison dart frogs are facing threats from habitat loss and climate change. Conservation groups are actively working to protect their habitats and maintain biodiversity in ecosystems where these frogs thrive.
