Default Elementary school presentation - call for photos

Later this month, I will be doing a presentation for a gymnasium full of elementary school kids. I am putting together a power point presentation covering the following topics:

Introduction - what is a poison frog?
Why are they poisonous, and where do the poisons come from?
Poison frog diversity - frog photos and distribution
K-strategist reproduction - K- vs R-strategist comparison
Breeding and parental care - photos/videos
Habitat
Environmental issues/deforestation

I'm currently looking for frog photos to add to the presentation. I found the "Post your best frog photos" thread and previous photo call threads. I'll be sending pm's for photo permissions, for photos that I find and want to use, but I'd also like to start another photo thread. Please post any presentation-quality dart pictures. Also, please post your name (if you would like) so I can give you credit for your photo.

Please note that by posting your photo here, you are granting permission for me to use your photo.

Thanks!

For my zoology big end of the year project I am doing a powerpoint presentation over dart frogs as well. The powerpoints I'm making is the introduction telling about what they are where they live and how they are toxic, and another one over feeding, another one over sls, another one on creating a habitat, and another one on breeding. Its quite fun actually putting it together!

I would love to share my beautiful Mantella baroni dart frogs. I get more compliments from these guys. I believe the children will love their spectacular color bodies. Colleen Baida

The frogs look amazing! The pic won't open larger though(much to my dismay!). Can you upload a larger image? I am not the OP, but would love to see these stunning frogs closer!

Unfortunately, the small one won't blow up, but here is the one that was next to it. I moved this picture to another album in Photobucket and puff....it deleted the picture. Here is my favorite!!

What an awesome opportunity to educate younger generations. Just remember, the attention span for this age group is no more than 30minutes regardless of the subject matter. Have fun and good luck!
