frog licker

Not all poison frogs can be tasted like this. The skin of the golden dart frog of South America is so toxic it could kill the human that tried to taste it. "It is always best to do a quick safety sniff first," Clark says. "Some poison frogs exude a a bit of chemical that burns the throat." Clark admits that on one occasion licking a poison frog resulted in a a swollen throat and difficulty swallowing for a day or so. "The orange treefrog was called the taboo frog by the [Guyana] locals, but I was too curious," Clark says by way of explaining why she went ahead and tasted the frog anyway. Poison frogs obtain the toxins in their skin from their diet. Clark's research focuses on trying to find out which of the insects the Mantella eats could be passing the toxins on to the frogs. Understanding that helps establish more about the frog's habitat and the importance of protecting that habitat's diversity. The chemistry of the frog could also be important for human medicine.
