Moonshine Poison Dart Frog CB

Poison dart frogs are named as such as native tribes reportedly used to rub arrows on the frogs back before hunting.

Dart frogs in captivity do not have the same level of toxins which they do in the wild. Their diet in the wild is largely responsible for the level of toxin which they possess. In the wild they would consume termites, ants and other inverts which eat plants containing toxins. The frogs in captivity rarely have any toxin due to their diet of fruit flies and small crickets which are also bred captively.

Dart frogs come in some incredible colours such as bright blue, yellow, red, green, gold, black and combinations. The most toxic frogs are the brightest coloured ones. They have bright colours to warn predators.

Mother frogs in some species, carry both eggs and tadpoles on their backs. They are an extremely good care givers to their young.
