Golden Poisonous Dart Frogs ( Topic 4)

My fourth topic is about the Golden Poisonous Dart Frog.They are one of the largest species of frogs. They are about 1 inch long (paper clip length) and usually live in rainforests in the pacific coast . They can come in bright yellow, orange and pale green. They change color to warn off predators. They live off of flies, crickets, ants, termites, and beetles. They are considered  one of the most toxic animals on earth. It has enough venom to kill 10 grown men and is used as a powerful painkiller. They can live up to 10 years. I picked this because I think these frogs are really unique and interesting to learn about. They are also really pretty and one of my favorite species.
