Iberia Eleutherodactylus frogs have relied on this kind of poison to compensate for physical limitations.
Eleutherodactylus iberia frog species living in Cuba, only 10mm long, is the world's smallest frog recorded in the world record book.
In addition to Eleutherodactylus iberia frogs, there are four other frog strains in the world whose skin can produce toxins.
Immediately, scientists have not grasped the toxic level of toxins that Eleutherodactylus iberia frog secreted.
The results of the study were published online in Biology Letters.
