    Seems like a facepalm to me... yeah, humans may be able to avoid messing with them, but as an animal that fights daily not to be eaten by your predators, wouldn't you NOT want to be glowing in the dark?! Food for thought...

    It's a good thing that their predators wont have one of those lights then or they would be in trouble.

    I think I would have fainted, lol. I hear dart frogs have very delicate skin, I would be terrified I was gonna hurt the poor little thing? So what's it like working to save a species like that? I would be proud. I wish I can help them more than I do here. I have always wanted to work in the field to save habitats and animals alike. What you are doing is amazing!
