Poison Dart Frog

 

Poison Dart frogs are yellow, red, green, orange, blue and black. They live in Central and South American rain forests. The Poison Dart frog eats ants, termites, and beetles. They have very few enemies because of their poison. Their life span is 13 to 15 years in captivity. The Poison Dart frog produces poison skin toxins that the natives use in their darts and arrows to kill small animals and birds.
