Akiuma

Osha jeraha, mweke mtu mtulivu na utafute msaada wa kitabibu.

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.
Akikuuma: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ukweli

Where cane toads arrived at Kakadu National Park, almost the entire population of this lizard was wiped out. Its numbers have been estimated to have dropped by as much as 97% within three years.1

Its eyesight is excellent, but it is night blind because its retinas have no rods, the cells used for night vision.1

The biggest threat to this lizard is the cane toad. Cane toads are poisonous to it, and it can eat the larger toads, which carry lethal doses of poison.1

The Australian name 'goanna' probably comes from 'iguana', because the first European settlers thought these lizards looked like the iguanas of South America.1
