Looks Beautiful? Wait, know one fact about these frogs. Each of it can kill 100 human! Yes this the most poisonous frog in the World.
Phyllobates terribilis, shown above, has enough poison to kill 100 humans
Their poison contains toxins that dull the nerves and produce heart and repiratory failure. The skin of an adult P. terribilis has enough batrachotoxin to kill 20,000 mice, or 100 adult humans. Two-tenths of a microgram of batrachotoxin is lethal in the human blood stream and each adult P. terribilis contains nearly 200 micrograms."
