    The defensive toxin of these frogs is not really harmful to people via skin contact by can be harmful in the eyes or mouth.


    The danger lies more with your pets. Dogs and cats mainly.


    "Dog owners should be cautious: the toxins are strong enough to kill full grown dogs that pick up or mouth the toads. Symptoms of intoxication are excessive salivation, irregular heartbeat and gait, and pawing at the mouth. If a dog displays any of these symptoms, use a garden hose to rinse its mouth from back to front and consult a veterinarian."
