Happy Summer! On this episode, we are talking about a sunny-colored frog, which happens to be one of the most toxic animals in the world \\u2013 the golden poison dart frog.\\xa0 We discuss the difference between venomous and toxic, how many humans one of these tiny frogs can kill with one touch, and their surprisingly social nature.\\xa0 Plus: can you guess which sound comes from a poison dart frog? (Jaguar does a pretty good imitation!)
