The Golden poison frog Phyllobates terribilis was discovered in 1973 and is one of the most poisonous animals in the world.d. It is endemic to Colombia. The poison is so strong that it was used by Chocó Indians to poison their hunting darts, and may have once been used in warfare. The Indians would rub the tip of a dart (not an arrow) along the back of a live frog. Once dry, the poison would remain active on the dart for up to a year. The back of a single frog would provide enough poison for two or three darts; the frog was unharmed and released back into the wild. The Indians used the darts to hunt mammals and birds.
