"Phyllobates terribilis" - also known as the golden dart frog, or simply golden frog. Found only on the western coast of Colombia, they are the largest species of poison dart frog, though still relatively tiny at 55 mm (roughly 2 inches) Even so, this little nugget packs enough poison to kill between 10 to 20 people. Very rarely for frogs, they are quite sociable and live in groups of around 6 individuals. (They're also very intelligent and adept at precision tongue-hunting. One might say they're rather cunning linguists)
