The golden mantella is a small frog, only about 2 to 2.6 cm long, that is found only on the island of Madagascar. Its bright yellow, orange or red skin is a warning that it is poisonous. It is one of the most threatened amphibians on the island.1

Dintlha

1

The golden mantella's skin toxins come from the small invertebrates it eats, not from its own body.1

2

A snake called Thamnosophis lateralis and a skink of the genus Zonosaurus have been seen preying on it at Torotorofotsy Wetland, even though it is poisonous.1

3

Its bright colours are an example of aposematism, a warning signal to predators about its poison.1

4

It has a convergent evolution link with the poison dart frogs of Central and South America, which are not closely related but share similar traits.1

5

It is popular in the pet trade because it is active during the day, has attractive colours and is fairly easy to keep.1

6

Males often call from hidden spots near water, and their call is a pleasant, repeated click.1
