Black-legged poison frog
Tooke nder nguru mumIna ñaama: TeewuTooke memde walla ñaamde, wonaa tooke ŋatol walla fiɗolThe black-legged poison frog is a small, brightly coloured frog from the rainforests of Colombia. It is one of the most toxic dart frogs in the world, and its skin can kill a person. It is also an endangered species, so it matters for conservation.1

No anndirto nde
- The body is earthy orange to pure yellow.1
- The forelimbs and hindlegs are black or dark blue.1
- It is one of the largest poison dart frogs, but it is smaller and more slender than the golden poison frog.1

Ina jiiɓindiree e: It is often mistaken for the golden poison frog (Phyllobates terribilis), which looks similar. The black-legged poison frog is smaller, more slender and less poisonous. Juvenile golden poison frogs can also look like it. It also resembles the 'netted' colour form of D. leucomelas.1

This frog is poisonous rather than venomous, because its toxin comes out through its skin. The toxin is batrachotoxin, a neurotoxin that attacks the nerves. It stops nerve signals from getting through, which causes paralysis, heart failure and breathing failure. There are no known treatments or antidotes for it.1

Its bright colours warn predators that it is poisonous, and its skin releases toxins through pores.1

Anndal
Some Chocó people in Colombia use the poison from these frogs to tip hunting darts for blowguns.1
The male carries the tadpoles on his back. Some of the toxin rubs off onto them, so a predator that eats one would be poisoned.1
The frog cannot make its own toxin. It gets the chemicals it needs from its diet and its surroundings.1
Unlike most frogs, which are active at night, this frog is active during the daytime. Its bright colours are easier to see then, which helps warn predators.1
The male's high-pitched trill attracts females. Brighter males are more attractive, and their colour can help them win mates.1

Fenaande: That it is the most toxic dart frog in the world.
Goonga: It is the second most toxic dart frog. The golden poison frog is more toxic.1

- The eggs are fertilised outside the body, and a parent protects them until they hatch. The male then carries the tadpoles on his back to water.1
