Tomato frog
Daŋar ci deramDafay lekk: GunóorAm daŋar ci yaram, du màtt walla jamThe 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

Ni ngay ko xàmmee
- Vibrant orange-red colour on the back1
- Females have brighter red or orange tones and a pale underside1
- Some individuals have black spots on the throat1
- Females are much larger than males1
Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: The tomato frog is closely related to D. guineti, and the two are often confused. It is not yet clear how far the tomato frog's range extends, or whether it is a separate species or a variant of D. guineti.1
Kàttanu daŋar
Deram am na daŋar. Musiba la ci laal, mar walla lekk.
Lan la daŋar bi ci yaramam di def?
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

Lan lay def bu tiitee?
When threatened, it inflates its body to look larger, and its skin secretion acts as a sticky glue to deter predators.1

Xibaar
Females are much larger than males, reaching up to 230 g, while males reach only about 41 g.1
Each female can lay between 1,000 and 1,500 eggs at once, on the surface of the water.1

Tadpoles turn into yellow juveniles about 45 days after the eggs were laid.1
