The Oriental fire-bellied toad is a small frog that lives in northeastern Asia, mostly near slow streams, ponds and forests. Its bright belly is a warning: when it is disturbed, it gives off a mild toxin through its skin. It is common across much of its range.1

  • Bright yellow, red or orange-red belly, mottled with dark spots.1
  • Red finger and toe tips are usually present.1

Forza tossica

Tissi en sia pel

Sia pel è tossica. Igl è privlus d'al tutgar, d'al litgar u d'al mangiar.

Tge fa sia substanza tossica?

The toad's skin releases a milky, mildly toxic substance when it is disturbed or frightened, mostly from the hind legs and sometimes the belly. Its toxins are described as mild, and the toxin does not pose a significant threat to human health. Captive toads are generally less toxic than wild ones, because their diet in the wild adds to their toxicity.1

Quant privlus è el per umans?

Privel per umans: LevSco ina piztgada d'avieul u main. Practicamain nunprivlus per umans.

The toxin does not pose a significant threat to human health, but its skin mucus can cause discomfort to the mouth and eyes if the toad is handled.1

Tge fa el, cura ch'el ha tema?

When threatened, it releases toxin from its skin, lies on its back to show its brightly coloured belly, and arches its head and holds up its limbs as a warning.1

Sch'insatgi l'ha tutgà u mangià

Fatgs

1

Unusually for a frog, this species has no eardrum or resonator, and it makes its calls by inhaling.1

2

In experiments, these toads learned to solve mazes using water as a reward, which other frog types did not manage.1

3

Its skin contains bombesin, a peptide that affects stomach function in mammals. It was first found in its relative, the European fire-bellied toad.1

4

Males call to females with a light sound that is compared to a musical triangle.1

5

Grass snakes and other water-dwelling snakes are known to eat these toads without any ill effect.1
