The little devil poison frog is a small, brightly coloured frog that lives in the rainforests of Colombia and Ecuador. It is common in parts of Colombia, but it has disappeared from much of its range in Ecuador. Its bright colours warn predators that its skin is toxic.1

Anadunga sumu au ana sumu ya kugusa? Wanyama wanaodunga sumu huingiza sumu kwa kuuma au kudunga. Wanyama wenye sumu ya kugusa au kula hudhuru wakiguswa au kuliwa. Huyu ni wa aina ya pili.

Anaishi

Southwestern Colombia and Northwestern Ecuador, including the provinces of Esmeraldas, Pichincha, Imbabura, Cotopaxi, Manabi, Santo Domingo de los Tsachilas and Los Rios1

Amerika Kusini

Nyumbani

It lives in humid lowland and foothill rainforest, usually on the forest floor, and it can be found up to about 1000 metres above sea level. It lives near rivers, streams and in the interior of the forest, and it can survive in some degraded areas such as plantations, as long as they are humid.1

Urefu

2.6 cm hadi 3.8 cm (1 in hadi 1.5 in)1

Kasi ya juu

takriban km 3.7 kwa saa (maili 2.3 kwa saa)

Hula nini?

It eats small animals from the leaf litter on the forest floor, mainly ants, which can make up 40% to 86% of its diet. It also eats mites, springtails and insect larvae in smaller amounts.1

Jinsi ya kumtambua

Small, about 2.6 to 3.8 cm from snout to vent.1
Bright colours in shades of orange, red or yellow, with black patterns. Several colour forms exist, including red, yellow and orange.1
Smooth skin, with no webbing between the toes.1
Active during the day, and males call loudly from raised perches.1

Nguvu ya sumu

Sumu ndani ya ngozi

Ngozi yake ina sumu. Ni hatari kumgusa, kumramba au kumla.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

This frog is poisonous rather than venomous. Its skin contains toxic alkaloids, which it gets from the ants and mites it eats and then stores in its skin. These toxins act as a defence against predators.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

Its bright, warning colours tell predators that its skin is unpalatable, and it is toxic if attacked.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

Its toxins come from its diet, so a frog living in cleared pastureland has fewer toxins than one living in rainforest, because it eats fewer kinds of ants, mites and termites.1

Females have much larger home ranges than males and can climb up to 10 metres, while males can only climb up to 2 metres.1

Because it lays its eggs on land, it lays fewer and larger eggs than frogs that lay their eggs in water, so each egg has more resources to survive.1

Its bright colours are a warning, which is called aposematic coloration.1
