A variety of terrestrial vertebrates have evolved mechanisms of chemical defense. For example, neotropical poison dart frogs synthesize and store neurotoxic alkaloids in their skin. One of the compounds produced by the poison dart frog has recently been discovered in birds of the genus Pitohui, leading to increased interest in the possibility that other birds may be chemically defended.
