Greening's frog is a small tree frog that lives in the dry thorn scrub of eastern Brazil. It is venomous: it has spines on its skull that can inject venom when it headbutts. It is special because it survives a semi-desert climate by hiding in tree hollows, rock cracks and bromeliads.1

Imbaraga z'ubumara

Amahwa afite ubumara

Amahwa atyaye ni yo atwara ubumara. Kuyikandagira cyangwa kuyifata birababaza.

Ubumara bwayo bukora iki?

Its skull spines inject venom into other animals, or into a human hand, when it headbutts. Its skin secretions contain steroids and alkaloids, which in laboratory tests caused a powerful painful effect and swelling in mouse cells. In the wild these secretions act as a chemical defence against predators.1

Iteje akaga kangana iki ku bantu?

Ikora iki iyo ifite ubwoba?

It hides in a tree hollow, rock crevice or bromeliad, sealing the entrance with its head, and it defends itself by headbutting with its skull spines.1

Niba amahwa yayo akujombye

  • Niba hari uwakoze ku yindi: karaba intoki neza kandi ntukore ku maso cyangwa ku munwa. Niba umwana cyangwa itungo ryayirigase cyangwa ryayiriye: hamagara ikigo gishinzwe uburozi cyangwa nimero y'ubutabazi.

Buri gihe banza uhamagare nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911). Izi ni inama rusange z'ubutabazi bw'ibanze, si inama za muganga. Ibanze by'ubutabazi bw'ibanze

Irinde akaga

  • Ntuzigere ukora, ufata cyangwa ushotora inyamaswa yo mu gasozi, nubwo yaba ntoya, kandi nubwo yasa n'isinziriye cyangwa yapfuye.
  • Yihe umwanya. Niba uhuye n'imwe, tuza, usubire inyuma buhoro buhoro kandi uyireke yigendere.
  • Niba amahwa yayo akujombye: tuza, ntunyeganyege, hamagara nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911) cyangwa ujye ku bitaro vuba. Ibuka uko yasaga, ifoto irafasha.

Ntigushakisha ngo ikugirire nabi. Ikoresha ubumara bwayo kugira ngo ifate ibyo kurya cyangwa yirinde, kandi ikunda cyane kwihisha. Ibindi ku kwirinda

Ibintu by'ukuri

1

Unlike poison dart frogs, which only secrete poison from their skin, this frog can inject venom through spines on its skull.1

2

The skin of its head is fused to the skull to form a casque, a hard helmet-like structure.1

3

In laboratory tests, its skin secretions also slowed the growth of mouse fibroblast and melanoma cells.1

4

It has a tough, water-resistant skin and a low metabolic rate, which help it survive the dry semi-desert climate.1

5

When the rains start and the streams run with water, males set up territories near the water and call to attract females.1

6

It shares its headbutting, spine-injecting defence with another frog, Nyctimantis brunoi.1
