The eastern newt is a small amphibian that lives in eastern North America. Its bright orange young, called red efts, walk around on land in damp forests. The adults carry a strong poison in their skin, so they are best left alone.1

Nakalalason o makamandag? Ang mga makamandag na hayop ay nag-iiniksiyon ng kamandag sa pamamagitan ng kagat o tusok. Ang mga nakalalasong hayop ay nakapipinsala kapag hinawakan o kinain. Ang isang ito ay nakalalason.

Home

Eastern newts live in both coniferous and deciduous forests, and they need a moist environment with a temporary or permanent body of water. Adults stay in muddy ponds, lakes, swamps, ditches and quiet streams, while red efts may be seen in a forest after a rainstorm. They are also common aquarium pets, either collected from the wild or sold commercially.1

Sa lupa, tantiya lang

Ano ang kinakain nito?

As larvae they feed on small aquatic invertebrates. As adults and efts they eat insects, springtails, soil mites, snails, worms, small crustaceans, young amphibians and frog eggs, typically every two to three days.1

Paano ito makikilala

Larvae are brown-green and have gills, and they live only in the pond where they hatched.1
Red efts, the land-dwelling juveniles, are bright orangish-red with darker red spots outlined in black. One newt can have as many as 21 spots.1
Adults are dull olive green on the back with a dull yellow belly, and they keep the black-rimmed red spots.1
Adults develop a larger, blade-like tail and slimy skin.1

Madalas mapagkamalang: Central newts, a subspecies, are brown or green with fine black dots all over the body and may have a row of red spots on each side. Their belly is yellow or orange and noticeably lighter than the rest of the body.1

Lakas ng lason

May lason sa balat nito

Nakalalason ang balat nito. Delikado itong hawakan, dilaan o kainin.

Ano ang epekto ng lason nito?

The eastern newt is poisonous rather than venomous, so it does not bite or sting to deliver its toxin. Its skin contains tetrodotoxin, a neurotoxin, meaning it attacks the nerves. In predators it can cause muscle paralysis, skin irritation and even death, and it is also the strongest known emetic, meaning it causes vomiting.1

Gaano ito kapanganib sa tao?

Panganib sa tao: MasakitTalagang masakit, pero halos hindi kailanman malala.

Its skin toxin is harmful to predators, and the newt should not be handled with bare hands.1

Ano ang ginagawa nito kapag natatakot?

Its bright red colouring warns predators, and its skin releases toxins. Its ventral surface has poison glands, and it can swim quickly away from aquatic predators.1

Kung may humawak o kumain nito

Kung may humawak sa isa: hugasang mabuti ang mga kamay at huwag hawakan ang mata o bibig. Kung may batang o alagang hayop na dumila o kumain ng isa: tawagan ang poison control center o ang numero pang-emergency.

Laging tawagan muna ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911). Ito ay pangkalahatang gabay sa pangunang lunas, hindi payong medikal. Mga batayan ng pangunang lunas

Mag-ingat

Huwag kailanman hawakan, hulihin o asarin ang ligaw na hayop, kahit maliit, at kahit mukha itong tulog o patay.
Bigyan ito ng espasyo. Kung makasalubong ka ng isa, manatiling kalmado, dahan-dahang umatras at hayaan itong umalis.
Kung nahawakan o nakain mo ito: huwag kuskusin ang mata o bibig mo, hugasan ang mga kamay mo at kumuha ng tulong medikal.

Hindi ka nito hinahabol. Ang lason nito ay para lang walang kumain dito. Higit pa tungkol sa pag-iingat

Mga fact

Newt larvae increase their toxin production when predators, such as dragonflies, are nearby.1

Eastern newts can regenerate lost limbs.1

A Belted Kingfisher was observed beating an eastern newt on a nest box 15 times before eating it.1

The eastern newt's bright red juvenile stage is called a red eft, and it may travel far from its pond.1

Only about 2% of larvae survive to reach the red eft stage.1

Some larvae have been found in the pitchers of the carnivorous plant Sarracenia purpurea.1
