No poison dart frog shoots it poison. They ooze if from their skin. The type of poison depends on the species of frog.

Do poison dart frogs use camouflage?

In the wild: Dart frogs hunt ants and termites by day amidst the thick brush. Because their prey is so small, they spend a great deal of time foraging, increasing their vulnerability to predation. Their bright colors offer them protection as they forage, warning away predators such as snakes. At the zoo:Pinhead crickets and wingless fruit flies.

How do poison dart frogs eat?

insects and grass The easy answer is they eat bugs, live bugs. In the wild, they eat bugs and beetles that eat poisonous plants. It is these bugs that the frogs are able to extract the alkaloid toxins that they use to make betraxotoxin (spelling may be wrong) (the same toxin found in the liver of blow fish. See blow fish sushi for info) stored in glands on their back. When the frog feels threatened, The frog will present their back with their head down and butt up and secrete poison from the glands. When kept in captivity, controlling the diet of the bugs keep the alkaloid toxin from the frog and the frogs loose their toxicity.They eat plants and bugsIn the wild they eat mostly fire ants. The reason being, these ants are the source of the frog's poison. In captivity, owners can buy them wingless fruit flies and vitamin dust at most pet-stores and feed it to them, although most pet-stores do not supply poison dart frogs. A great place to get one is a private breeder.Dart frogs purely eat and survive off meat. They will eat spiders, ants, termites and insects such as flies. They have few predators because they produce a high toxin level of poison.insectsIt eats small terrestrial invertebrates. Mostly insects like small beetles and other small prey.
