The tomato frog is a bright orange-red frog that lives only on the island of Madagascar. Its colour is a warning: its skin produces a sticky white substance that can cause an allergic reaction in people. It is also a species of conservation concern, because many have been taken for the pet trade.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 tomato frog is poisonous to touch rather than venomous, as it does not inject venom. A white substance secreted from its skin acts as a glue and can produce an allergic reaction in humans.1

Tge fa el, cura ch'el ha tema?

When threatened, it inflates its body to look larger, and its skin secretion acts as a sticky glue to deter predators.1

Fatgs

Females are much larger than males, reaching up to 230 g, while males reach only about 41 g.1

Each female can lay between 1,000 and 1,500 eggs at once, on the surface of the water.1

Tadpoles are only about 6 mm long when they hatch and feed by filter-feeding.1

Tadpoles turn into yellow juveniles about 45 days after the eggs were laid.1
