Ingestion of the potent neurotoxin epibatidine does not compromise locomotion or behavior in the poison frog Epipedobates tricolor

Adriana M. Jeckel, Sophie J. Draper, Benjamin P. Deters, Rachel B. Weinberg, Neil Durie Tsutsui, Rebecca D. Tarvin

This study shows that Epipedobates tricolor frogs resist the physiological effects of epibatidine, a potent neurotoxin, but are affected by ethanol and handling stress.
