The town of El Valle de Anton in Central Panama is the site of a four-mile wide volcanic crater that was formed some one million years ago. The frogs are highly toxic and it is believed that the venom of just one frog could kill a thousand mice. It is the home to the El Valle Amphibian Conservation Center that is dedicated to the study and research of the Panamanian Golden Frog and other amphibians of the region.
