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

Chefo ya yona (e chefang ha o e ama kapa o e ja) e etsang?

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

The skin secretion can cause an allergic reaction in people.1
