This is the green and black poison dart frog (Dendrobates auratus). His measurements are:

1.9 cm - 2.5cm (depending on sex mostly)

This small fellow is as the name indicates a poisonous one. But when their diet changes like when in captivity, they lose their poison. This has led people to believe that their diet in the wild is what gives them their poisonous abilities.

He is featured in the animal deck game Náttúruval that you should check out

trick or treat? :0

You got a green and black poison dart frog (Dendrobates auratus)!

I showed you Cereza.

Now behold, her mate Olimar.

He's hiding in a skull because he's shy and evil

I have tried to choose a wide distribution of animals representing many different clades, aiming for relatively intelligent species within their respective clade. There are only 12 poll options possible, so no asking “what about X?” Inevitably some species will have to stand in for a much broader class than others, e.g., the Humboldt squid for all cephalopods. (But the Humboldt squid is probably a good choice: they’re fairly gregarious and cooperative, unlike the octopus.)

Uplifted species will have the capacity for language, abstract thought, tool use, episodic memory, planning, and self-awareness. Their cognition may in other respects be radically different from our own, especially if they are not mammals.
