The Strawberry Poison Dart Frog of the Costa Rican Rainforests

This discussion topic submitted by Brandon J. Meyer ( brjmeyer@indiana.edu) at 12:28 pm on 3/14/02. Additions were last made on Wednesday, October 23, 2002.

My topic is primary focused towards Poison Dart/Arrow Frogs that are found throughout tropical South America from Costa Rica to Southern Brazil. Specifically, I will focus on the Red and blue Poison Arrow Frog (also Strawberry Poison Dart Frog; Dendrobates pumilio) that lives in the rain forests of Costa Rica. I will cover some major issues such as their decline in population, what may be done to save them, unique lifestyles that they have, as well as their unique interaction with man.

More will be updated soon.
