The Full Story
Poison dart frogs are native to humid tropical forests in Central and South America, with especially high diversity in Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and parts of Panama and Brazil. They usually live on the forest floor or low vegetation in moist habitats. Many species have bright warning colors and contain potent skin toxins, though toxicity varies by species and diet. Their geographic concentration in tropical forests makes them a major example of amphibian diversity in the Neotropics.
