Poison dart frogs got that name not because the frogs have poison darts - they haven't - but because humans used the poison from the frogs to poison their darts.

How does a poison arrow frog avoid predators?

Poisonous frogs have the poison on their skins or it is excreted through the skin. When a animal or human touches the frog, the poison transfers through skin to skin contact. If an animal tries to bite or eat the frog (example: a snake or possum), the poisons transfer from the frog's skin to the predator's mouth. Did you know that most poisonous frogs are also the most colorful? The distinctive coloring is part of their warning system, "Don't eat me; I'll taste bad and kill you."

Where are the ears on a poison arrow frog?

A poison arrow (or other frog) does not have ears per sebut has what is called a tympanum on their head behind each eye. It picks up vibrations and transfers them into the inner part of the frog's head where the rest of the organs of hearing are located. Recall that the frog's "ears" have to work under water, and the "ear" of a frog (or toad) is completely covered by the tympanum. The frog's other hearing organs are behind the tympanum in the inner head. Got links if you want 'em.

Are stonefish eatable?

No... a stonefish is venomous, not poisonous. Poisonous states the the poison is always active. Like a poison dart frog, the poison is always on the outside of its body. But venomous is when it has to be outputted somehow. Like on a stonefish, you have to step on the spine for the venom to come out, otherwise, if you touch it, nothing will happen.
