Green and black poison dart frogs were introduced to Hawaii by humans
in 1932 to help control the insect population.
Poison dart frogs don’t have webbed feet, so they are not very good swimmers.
(Dendrobates auratus)
These small frogs are about 2.5-4cm in length and are usually brown or black with spots or bands of colour ranging in shade from green to blue or tan. They are semi-arboreal and spend most of their time in trees but return to the ground when they want to move location. Small sticky pads on the bottom of their toes help them to climb.
These frogs are native to Central America and can be found in Costa Rica, Panama, Nicaragua, and Colombia. Non-native populations can be found in Hawaii.
Green and black poison dart frogs are insectivores and feed on a variety of invertebrates. In the wild their diet would include ants, termites, flies and sometimes spiders.
Green and black poison dart frogs can live over 10 years in captivity.
Least concern.
