The golden poison frog is a small, bright frog from the rainforests of Colombia. It is considered the most poisonous animal species on Earth, even though it is small. Its bright colours warn predators to stay away.1

It lives in humid rainforest with high rainfall, from sea level up to 200 m. Its range is less than 5,000 square km. The frogs live in evenly spaced groups and are active during the day. Adults carry their tadpoles into the canopy and place them in water-filled pools in bromeliads and tree holes.1

It is an ambush hunter that eats mainly ants, along with many other insects and small invertebrates. Adults can eat prey much larger in relation to their size than most other dendrobatids. Tadpoles feed on algae, mosquito larvae and other edible material in their pools.1

Botlhole jwa yone (jwa go e ama kgotsa go e ja) bo dira eng?

The frog's skin glands produce batrachotoxin, a very strong alkaloid poison. It affects the sodium channels of nerve cells, leaving muscles stuck in a contracted state. This can lead to paralysis, heart fibrillation, heart failure and death.1

E kotsi go le kae go batho?

Kotsi go batho: E a bolayaNngwe ya diphologolo tse di kotsi go gaisa mo lefatsheng.

An average wild frog is estimated to carry about one milligram of poison, enough to kill 10 to 20 humans. A predator usually has to try to eat the frog to be poisoned, but contact with the skin is also dangerous. Captive-bred frogs are not toxic.1

E dira eng fa e tshogile?

Its bright colours warn predators of its toxicity, a pattern called aposematic coloration.1

Dintlha

1

Local indigenous peoples, such as the Emberá and Cofán, use the frog's poison on the tips of hunting darts and arrows. The poison stays deadly for two years or longer.1

2

The frog gets its toxicity from its diet. Frogs fed commercial feeder insects in captivity lose their toxicity over time.1

3

Scientists think a small beetle from the family Melyridae may be a key prey item that supplies the poison.1

4

The Leimadophis epinephelus snake has shown resistance to several frog toxins and has been seen eating juvenile frogs without harm.1

5

The frog's colour varies. The yellow form gives it its common name, but the species also has mint green, orange and orange blackfoot forms.1

Mosenyi wa ditlhamane

Tlhamane: All golden poison frogs are always poisonous.

Nnete: The frog only becomes toxic when it eats the right prey in the wild. Captive-bred frogs raised without their natural food are non-toxic.1

The eggs are laid on the ground, hidden under leaf litter. Tadpoles stick to the mucus on the parent's back, and the parent carries them to water pools in the canopy.1
