[edit] Copyvio
Problem: a deal of this comes verbatim from a California Polytechnic State University term paper on Batrachotoxin. I haven't shopped it as copyvio, as it's a first article and is probably down to inexperience. But it needs rewriting pronto. Tearlach 20:50, 15 November 2005 (UTC)
I thought the antidote for the poison arrow/dart frog was honey, seen from man vs wild. Talvinlee (talk) 23:44, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
[edit] Pitohui
Shouldn't the Pitohui be listed as a source of the toxin? I'm not sure but I heard their diet of beetles contibute their posion.
[edit] I enjoyed your article
