Golden Poison Dart Frog
The Golden Poison Dart Frog is a small, brightly colored amphibian native to the rainforests of Colombia. It is known for its striking yellow skin, which serves as a warning to predators about its toxicity. These frogs can grow to about 1.5 to 2 inches in length and are primarily found in humid, lowland areas.
These frogs obtain their potent toxins from their diet, which includes certain insects like ants. The toxins can be lethal, making them one of the most poisonous animals in the world. Despite their danger, they are popular in the pet trade, although they require specific care to thrive in captivity.
