The exact number of poison dart frogs remaining in the wild is difficult to determine, as many species are threatened by habitat loss, pollution, and climate change. Some species are classified as endangered or critically endangered, with populations declining significantly. Conservation efforts are ongoing to protect their habitats and increase their numbers. However, specific population estimates vary widely depending on the species and region.

All the frogs of this family "borrow" toxins from what they eat that actually makes the toxins (mostly ants and mites) because the frogs themselves don't manufacture the poisons. These toxins, a few of which can be quite dangerous, are "worn" by the frogs for protection.
