  2. Batrachotoxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batrachotoxin

    Frogs raised in captivity do not produce batrachotoxin, and thus may be handled without risk. However, this limits the amount of batrachotoxin available for research as 10,000 frogs yielded only 180 mg of batrachotoxin. [19] As these frogs are endangered, their harvest is unethical. Biosynthetic studies are also challenged by the slow rate of ...

    All pet frogs require moisture; this can be provided either with an automatic water sprayer, ultrasonic fog machine, or even manually, by use of a hand-held spray bottle. Frogs that live in the jungle naturally must be misted at least twice per day; frogs native to drier areas do not require as much moisture.

  7. Yellow-banded poison dart frog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow-banded_poison_dart_frog

    Like all Dendrobatidae, D. leucomelas frogs secrete toxins from their skin, which they gain from eating certain unspecified arthropod prey. It is uncertain precisely which arthropods lend their toxicity to which genus of Dendrobatidae, but one such arthropod is thought to have been identified as a possible source of the toxin for Dendrobatidae Phyllobates terribilis (aka the golden poison frog ...

  9. Wood frog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_frog

    The wood frog has a complex lifecycle that depends on multiple habitats, damp lowlands, and adjacent woodlands. Their habitat conservation is, therefore, complex, requiring integrated, landscape-scale preservation. [1] Wood frog development in the tadpole stage is known to be negatively affected by road salt contaminating freshwater ecosystems ...
