Anthony's poison arrow frog
Anthony's poison arrow frog is a small, brightly marked frog that lives on the forest floor in southwestern Ecuador and northwestern Peru. It is poisonous rather than venomous: its skin carries a very strong toxin, so it should never be touched or handled. Scientists have used a chemical from this frog to study the nervous system.1

Deram am na daŋar. Musiba la ci laal, mar walla lekk.

This frog is poisonous, not venomous. Its skin contains epibatidine, an extremely toxic substance similar to nicotine, which acts on the nerves. It is not used in medicine because it is too toxic for human use, and it is now used only for research.1

Xibaar
Epibatidine, one of the most toxic substances found in this frog, was first derived from it and named after it.1
The toxin appears to come from the frog's diet, because frogs raised in captivity had none.1
The male, not the female, carries the tadpoles on his back to water.1
Frogs collected from different habitats had different levels of toxin.1

- The female lays a clutch of 15 to 40 eggs on the ground among leaf litter. The male guards the eggs until they hatch in about two weeks, then carries the tadpoles on his back to a suitable water body, where they develop into frogs in about sixty days.1
