Green And Black Poison Dart Frog Fun Fact: A fun fact about the green and black poison dart frog is that its bright, striking coloration serves as a warning to potential predators that it is toxic. These frogs produce potent toxins in their skin, which they derive from their diet of ants, mites, and other small invertebrates. Indigenous people of Central and South America have even used the frog’s toxins to coat the tips of blow darts for hunting, hence the name “poison dart frog.”
