Poison dart frogs have captivated people for generations with their vibrant colors and toxicity. Unfortunately, many of these gorgeous frogs are at risk of extinction due to habitat loss and a fungal disease called chytridiomycosis, which scientists believe is exacerbated by climate change. Frogs are not only beautiful and interesting, they are crucially important to keeping ecosystems healthy. Adult frogs eat massive quantities of insects per year, including those that carry deadly diseases. They also serve as an important food source to a diverse array of predators.
