Animal Facts:
Strawberry Poison Dart Frog: A Tiny Jewel of the Rainforest
The strawberry poison dart frog (Oophaga pumilio), also known as the blue jeans poison frog, is a small but striking amphibian native to the humid lowlands of Central America, including Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. Famous for its vivid coloration, this species displays an incredible range of about 15–30 color morphs, from bright red and blue to green and yellow, making it a standout in the animal kingdom.
While not the most toxic of poison dart frogs, its skin secretes pumiliotoxins, derived from its diet of ants and mites, which serve as a potent defense mechanism. The frogs are diurnal and terrestrial, and their unique parental care includes mothers feeding unfertilized eggs to their tadpoles, ensuring their survival.
With their dazzling appearance and fascinating behaviors, these frogs are both a symbol of biodiversity and a reminder of the beauty of tropical ecosystems!
