Green and black poison dart frog
May lason sa balat nitoKinakain: Mga insektoNakalalason, hindi makamandagThe green-and-black poison dart frog is a small, brightly coloured frog from the forests of southern Central America and north-western Colombia. It is poisonous, not venomous: it gets its toxins from the tiny insects it eats. It is also one of the most variable poison frogs in colour and pattern.1

Paano ito makikilala
- Usually a mint-green background with a spotted or banded pattern1
- Dark or dull splotches, most often blackish, that can look like large spots, blotches or a splashed pattern1
- Colour varies a lot: some are darker green, lime, emerald, turquoise, blue, whitish or pale yellow, and some have no green or no black1
- Some variants are entirely black, or dark with only a few small green spots or streaks1
- Small adults: males about 1.9 cm, females about 2.5 cm or longer1
Lakas ng lason
Nakalalason ang balat nito. Delikado itong hawakan, dilaan o kainin.
Ano ang epekto ng lason nito?
Its skin holds alkaloid poisons, which are not venom injected by a bite. These poisons interfere with the ion channels and nicotinic acetylcholine receptors that nerves and muscles rely on. In extreme cases, this can cause numbness, loss of muscle control, convulsions, cardiac arrest and death.1

Kung may humawak o kumain nito
- Kung may humawak sa isa: hugasang mabuti ang mga kamay at huwag hawakan ang mata o bibig. Kung may batang o alagang hayop na dumila o kumain ng isa: tawagan ang poison control center o ang numero pang-emergency.
Laging tawagan muna ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911). Ito ay pangkalahatang gabay sa pangunang lunas, hindi payong medikal. Mga batayan ng pangunang lunas
Mag-ingat
- Huwag kailanman hawakan, hulihin o asarin ang ligaw na hayop, kahit maliit, at kahit mukha itong tulog o patay.
- Bigyan ito ng espasyo. Kung makasalubong ka ng isa, manatiling kalmado, dahan-dahang umatras at hayaan itong umalis.
- Kung nahawakan o nakain mo ito: huwag kuskusin ang mata o bibig mo, hugasan ang mga kamay mo at kumuha ng tulong medikal.
Hindi ka nito hinahabol. Ang lason nito ay para lang walang kumain dito. Higit pa tungkol sa pag-iingat

Mga fact
Hundreds of different alkaloid poisons have been identified in this frog.1
Parents carry tadpoles into the treetops and place them in bromeliad pools, where the tadpoles sometimes eat each other because food is scarce.1
Unlike other poison frogs, it gathers in large groups before mating, and males fight over small patches of ground.1
It was intentionally introduced to Oahu, Hawaii, in 1932 to help control mosquitoes.1
Its toe pads have small sucker-like discs that give it a mildly sticky grip when climbing.1
Myth buster
Mito: Poison dart frogs are poisonous in every case, because of their own nature.
Totoo: They are not poisonous by nature. They become poisonous from the alkaloids in their diet of ants and mites. Captive frogs fed on crickets and fruit flies are non-toxic.1
