A Frog's Life

Poison dart frog- Australia Zoo

 

Poison dart frogs are small, brightly coloured amphibians that live on tropical rainforest floors across Central and South America. They are named for the toxins they secrete from their skin, which have traditionally been used to tips of hunters' weapons

 

Poison dart frogs come in a range of vivid colours, and so they are sometimes known as the "jewels of the rainforest." Their vibrant colouring warns predators that the frogs are poisonous and should be avoided.
