Bruno's casque-headed frog is a tree frog with sharp, pointed bumps on its head. It lives in forests on the coast of southeastern Brazil. It is special because it can inject venom using spines on its skull, which is unusual among frogs.1

Amaggwa ag'obusagwa

Amaggwa amasongovu ge galimu obusagwa. Okukirinnyako oba okukikwata kiruma.

Obusagwa bwakyo bukola ki?

This frog injects venom through the sharp spines on its skull, which it uses by headbutting. Unlike poison dart frogs, which only release poison from their skin, it delivers venom directly into the target. The venom is estimated to be about 25 times as toxic as that of the local fer-de-lance pit viper.1

Kirina akabi kenkana wa eri abantu?

Akabi eri abantu: Kya maanyiAmaggwa gaakyo bwe gakufumita, genda eri omusawo. Okufa kubaawo kitono nnyo.

Its venom is estimated to be about 25 times as toxic as that of the local fer-de-lance pit viper. It can inject venom into a person's hand when it headbutts.1

Kikola ki nga kitidde?

It headbutts with its skull spines, which can inject venom into an animal or a person's hand.1

Amaggwa gaakyo bwe gakufumita

  • Omuntu bw'aba nga akutteko emu: naaza bulungi engalo era tokwata ku maaso wadde akamwa. Omwana oba ensolo y'awaka bw'aba ng'agikombye oba agiridde: kuba ekifo ekikola ku butwa (poison centre) oba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze.

Bulijjo sooka kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911). Buno bulagirizi bwa bujjanjabi obusooka obwa bulijjo, si kuwabula kwa musawo. Obujjanjabi obusooka obw'omusingi

Weekuume

  • Tokwatako, tokwata wadde okusoomooza ensolo ey'omu nsiko, ne bw'eba ntono, era ne bw'eba erabika nga yeebase oba nga efudde.
  • Gireke n'ebbanga. Bw'osisinkana emu, beera mukkakkamu, dda emabega mpola era gireke egende mu kkubo lyayo.
  • Amaggwa gaayo bwe gakufumita: beera mukkakkamu, totambula, kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911) oba tuuka mu ddwaliro mangu. Jjukira bwe yali efaanana, ekifaananyi kiyamba.

Tekikunoonya. Kikozesa obusagwa bwakyo okukwata emmere oba okwekuuma, era kyandisinze kwekweka. Ebirala ku kwekuuma
