Red-footed tortoises (Chelonoidis carbonarius) are very popular as captive-bred pets. These tortoises often mature to a modest size, of around 11 to 14 inches in length, and can be expected to live for over 50 years. They are a significant commitment as a pet, which many find quite rewarding. Like most tortoise species, they can be prolific burrowers, so care must be taken to ensure they cannot escape. Native to a wide variety of habitats in South America (from wet rainforests to drier grasslands), this species often does not need to brumate, but does need a highly varied diet.

Be sure to thoroughly research the needs of any animal you keep as a pet!

The green-and-black poison dart frog (Dendrobates auratus) is a strikingly colored, marble patterned native of Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia. In 1932, the species was intentionally introduced in Hawai’i for mosquito control. In its native habitat, this tiny species is a highly toxic animal, but due to the change in their diet, poison dart frogs maintained under human care are not toxic.

The strawberry poison dart frog (Oophaga pumilio), is a gorgeous Central American species native to Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. In some naturally occurring morphs, it is referred to as the "blue jeans" poison frog. The species is known to include roughly 15-30 widely varying color morphs observed in the wild. These tiny colorful frogs are diurnal (active during the daytime) and terrestrial. They produce their namesake toxin in the wild from the insects they eat. Poison dart frogs raised under human care generally do not produce toxins because they do not eat the same insect prey that they would in the wild.

In the wild, the golden poison frog (Phyllobates terribilis), or golden dart frog, or golden poison arrow frog, is easily the most toxic dart frog, if it is not the most poisonous animal known. As with other known dart frogs, when maintained under human care, these frogs generally do not produce toxins because they are not fed the same insect prey that they would eat in the wild. First described in 1978, this species is endemic to a naturally limited range of humid rainforests of Colombia’s Pacific coast. The golden poison frog has become endangered due to habitat destruction.

While dart frogs are generally tiny, the golden poison frog is the largest known dart frog, growing to nearly 30g and a length of 6cm at maturity. The species is known to exhibit some sexual dimorphism with respect to mature size, with females often larger than males. Adults of this species are brightly colored. Juveniles start out mostly black, with two bright stripes on their backs.

Despite its name, the “golden” poison frog, is known to exist in four main colors: yellow (golden), mint green, orange, and orange blackfoot. These brightly colored frogs are very popular subjects in naturalistic vivaria. The IUCN estimates that the majority of these frogs sold in the pet trade are legally produced from captive bred lineages.

The crested gecko (Correlophus ciliatus), or eyelash gecko, was believed to be extinct until it was rediscovered in 1994. Native to southern New Caledonia, these geckos are now among the most popular pet geckos in the world. Like many species of reptiles, these geckos are proving to be quite long-lived animals.
