Video by joelsartore | As a form of protection, the skin of the Sira poison frog secretes small amounts of pumiliotoxins, which can trigger pain and muscle spasms in any person or animal that comes into contact with the frog. However, because the toxin is mild, this species relies heavily on its agility and speed to escape potential predators, taking shelter in nearby leaf litter or dense foliage. Video taken joshs_frogs.
