European fire-bellied toad
Sumu ndani ya ngoziHula: WaduduSumu ya kugusa au kula, hadungi sumuThe European fire-bellied toad is a medium-sized frog that lives in ponds and marshes across Central and Eastern Europe. It is famous for its bright red belly, which it shows off to warn predators that it is toxic. Its loud 'whoop' call is also distinctive.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua
- Medium-sized frog, growing up to about 5.6 cm.1
- Back colour can be grey, brown or green, and is covered in warts.1
- Belly is red with thick black mottling.1
- When threatened, it lifts its arms, sometimes flipping over, to show its red belly.1
Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: The yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata) is closely related and the two can hybridise where they overlap. The yellow-bellied toad lives at higher elevations in ponds that dry up quickly, has longer legs and thicker skin, and cannot call as loudly.1
Nguvu ya sumu
Ngozi yake ina sumu. Ni hatari kumgusa, kumramba au kumla.
Sumu yake hufanya nini?
The skin of this toad contains bombinins, which have antibacterial and antifungal effects. Its red belly warns predators that its skin is toxic.1
Ana hatari gani kwa watu?
Hatari kwa watu: HafifuKama kudungwa na nyuki au chini ya hapo. Kimsingi hana madhara kwa watu.Hufanya nini akiogopa?
When threatened, it lifts its arms, sometimes flipping over, to expose its red belly and warn predators of its toxicity.1
Mtu akimgusa au kumla
- Mtu akimgusa: nawa mikono vizuri na usiguse macho wala mdomo. Mtoto au mnyama kipenzi akimramba au kumla: piga kituo cha taarifa za sumu au namba ya dharura.
Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza
Kaa salama
- Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
- Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
- Ukimgusa au kumla: usisugue macho wala mdomo, nawa mikono na utafute msaada wa kitabibu.
Hakuwindi wewe. Sumu yake ipo tu ili asiliwe na yeyote. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli
The antifungal effect of bombinins in the skin makes them promising for use in food packaging to slow spoilage.1
A population in Lorraine, France, lives more than 500 km from its natural range, probably because people moved them there on purpose.1
Dozens of ponds dug in Funen County, Denmark, helped increase the population about five-fold in a decade.1
The prokineticin family of compounds was first discovered in this species and the yellow-bellied toad.1
