The Andean poison frog is a very small bright orange frog from the dendrobatid family. It inhabits the mountain forests of the Andes in Colombia and protects itself with a strong poison in its skin.
The Andean poison frog differs from its relatives by its bright uniform orange color without spots and by living in cool high-mountain forests. It helps control the number of insects and warns predators of the danger with its bright coloration.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
