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.
