Photo 2 Sep 953 notes allcreatures: iheartokeeffe: fencehopping: Phantasmal poison frogs, which can kill anybody who merely touches them, have skin 200 times more toxic than morphine. The frogs, found on the western slopes of the Andes in Ecuador, South America, are so rare they are in danger of becoming extinct. When they reach adulthood, the frogs measure just 1cm and turn bright red in colour with three green fluorescent stripes on their back. Isn’t nature fantastic?
