Product Description
These spectacularly colored frogs are native to Neotropical rain forests in many parts of the world. They lose their toxicity when kept in captivity. Titles in the growing Reptile and Amphibian Keeper’s Guides series present useful facts and expert guidance to owners of snakes, lizards, frogs, and other amphibians. Readers are advised on all aspects of ownership, from selecting good specimens and determining sex to breeding, feeding, providing correct housing, and health care. Animals are described as they exist in their natural environment, and advice is given on ways of mirroring aspects of nature to help animals thrive in captivity. Books are heavily illustrated with color photos.

Customer Reviews
A great beginner book for those who like Poison Dart Frogs.
A wonderful book that gives the beginner a place to start from in their search for knowledge of Poison Dart Frogs. Sure there are plenty of other books that are more in depth than this one, but they usually cost a lot more and this book packs quite a bit in it for it's size! This book will help those who are thinking about trying to keep Poison Dart Frogs and it is a "no nonsense" book so it will tell you that these frogs require more "work" than others. This is helpful because most people will "impulse buy" pets without thinking about how diificult it might to care for them. Also, this book is a great introduction to learning about these frogs in the wild. Overall, you can't go wrong with buying this book and it won't "break the bank" for those who can't afford a more in depth book on these frogs.
Dart Frogs
A very basic book. Not as current as some others, but a good first book to read if you are considering going into the dart frog keeping hobby.
