Baron's mantella
Baron's mantella is a small, brightly coloured frog that lives only on the island of Madagascar. Its skin contains toxic chemicals that make it harmful to predators, and its bright colours warn them to stay away.1

यसलाई कसरी चिन्ने
- Has a light line above the eyes, called a rostral line.1
- Hind limbs are orange with irregular black stripes, giving a tiger-like pattern.1
- Front limbs range from light green to bright orange or yellow, with a large rounded flank blotch.1
- Adults are 2.4 to 3.2 cm long, and females are slightly larger than males.1
- Males call during the day, and it is an active hunter in daylight.1
प्रायः यससँग झुक्किइन्छ: It is often confused with the painted mantella (Mantella madagascariensis), which has a similar look. The painted mantella has a sky-blue, horseshoe-shaped marking on its throat. Baron's mantella does not have the flashmarks on its lower hind limbs.1
विषाक्त शक्ति
यसको छाला विषाक्त छ। यसलाई छुनु, चाट्नु वा खानु खतरनाक हुन्छ।
छुँदा वा खाँदा यसको विषले के गर्छ?
It does not inject venom. Its skin contains alkaloids, which are toxic chemicals it gets from eating mites. These make it harmful to predators that eat it, and they can cause sickness. The strength of the toxin varies over time and by location, and frogs in remote populations may be more potent.1
यो मानिसका लागि कति खतरनाक छ?
मानिसलाई खतरा: हल्कामौरीको डसाइ जत्तिकै वा त्यसभन्दा कम। मानिसका लागि लगभग हानिरहित।Its toxicity can vary, and careless handling is discouraged.1
डराउँदा यसले के गर्छ?
Its bright colours warn predators that eating it could be dangerous and cause sickness.1
कसैले छोयो वा खायो भने
- कसैले छोयो भने: हात राम्रोसँग धोऊ र आँखा वा मुख नछोऊ। कुनै बच्चा वा घरपालुवा जनावरले चाट्यो वा खायो भने: आफ्नो विष नियन्त्रण केन्द्र वा आपतकालीन नम्बरमा फोन गर।
सधैँ पहिले आफ्नो आपतकालीन नम्बरमा फोन गर (112, 000, 911)। यो सामान्य प्राथमिक उपचार मार्गदर्शन हो, चिकित्सकीय सल्लाह होइन। प्राथमिक उपचारका आधारभूत कुरा
सुरक्षित रहू
- जंगली जनावरलाई कहिल्यै नछोऊ, नसमात वा नजिस्काऊ, सानो भए पनि, र सुतेको वा मरेको जस्तो देखिए पनि।
- यसलाई ठाउँ देऊ। कुनै भेट्यौ भने शान्त रहू, बिस्तारै पछाडि हट र त्यसलाई आफ्नै बाटो जान देऊ।
- तिमीले छोयौ वा खायौ भने: आँखा वा मुख नमल, हात धोऊ र चिकित्सकीय मद्दत लेऊ।
यो तिमीलाई खोज्दै हिँडेको होइन। यसको विष त कसैले यसलाई नखाओस् भनेर मात्र हो। सुरक्षित रहने बारे थप

तथ्यहरू
Its toxicity comes from the mites it eats, so its poison depends on its diet.1
Mantella frogs look like poison dart frogs from Latin America, but they are only distant relatives. The likeness is an example of convergent evolution.1
Unlike most frogs, which are active at night, it hunts during the day.1
Its bright colours and its toxins are a warning system, a pattern called aposematism.1
Its family arrived on Madagascar an estimated 76 to 87 million years ago.1
It is one of the largest species in the Mantella genus, with only some Mantella viridis individuals reaching a similar size.1
भ्रम तोड्ने
भ्रम: Baron's mantella is the same as the painted mantella, and is sometimes called a painted mantella.
सत्य: The two are distinct species. They look alike, but the painted mantella has a sky-blue throat marking that Baron's mantella lacks.1
