Climbing mantella

Mantella laevigata

Malunga negama: The scientific name Mantella laevigata places it in the genus Mantella; the species name refers to its smooth skin, from the Latin laevigata meaning smooth.1

AsinangoziAsinangozi ebantwini. Akukho nto yokukhathazeka ngayo.

Ityhefu esikhumbeni sasoSitya: IzinambuzaneSiyatyhefa, asinatyhefu yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba

The climbing mantella is a small, brightly coloured frog that lives in the lowland rainforests of northeast Madagascar. It is a poison frog, so its skin holds chemicals that can harm predators. It is special because it is one of the few frogs whose parents care for their tadpoles by feeding them eggs.1

Siyatyhefa okanye sinetyhefu? Izilwanyana ezinetyhefu zitofa ityhefu ngokuluma okanye ngokuhlaba. Izilwanyana ezityhefayo ziyingozi xa uzichukumisa okanye uzitya. Esi siyatyhefa.

Sihlala

Northeast coastal region of Madagascar1

IAfrika

Ekhaya

Lives in lowland rainforests and bamboo groves, spending time in trees and bamboo but staying near water. It is found in several protected areas, including Masoala National Park and Marojejy National Park. It needs humidity of 80% to 100%.1

Ubude

2,4 cm ukuya ku-3 cm (0,9 in ukuya ku-1,2 in)1

Ubunzima

1,2 g ukuya ku-2 g (0 oz ukuya ku-0,1 oz)1

Esona santya siphezulu

malunga ne-3,5 km/h (2,2 mph)

Sitya ntoni?

Eats ants, insect larvae, mites and other small insects found in leaf litter, taking whatever is most available. Ants make up about 84% of its diet in the dry season but only 35% in the wet season, when its diet is more varied.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela

Adults are 24–30 mm long and weigh 1.2–2.0 g1
Front of the back is bright yellow or pale green1
Arms, legs, belly and rear are black, with blue spots on the limbs1
Eyes are completely black1
Has discs at the tips of its fingers and toes, and the toes are webbed1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: M. betsileo, M. viridis and M. expectata look similar but are differently coloured. They often have blue spots on the throat rather than the limbs, and they have a faint line along the upper lip, which the climbing mantella lacks.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

Ityhefu yaso etyhefayo (xa usichukumisa okanye usitya) yenza ntoni?

This frog is poisonous rather than venomous. Its skin glands contain lipophilic alkaloids, the chemicals that make up its poison, which it gets from the arthropods it eats. Researchers have found 41 different potent alkaloids in its skin. Captive frogs lose their toxicity over time.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuthambileNjengokuhlatywa yinyosi okanye ngaphantsi. Phantse asinangozi ebantwini.

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

Its bright colours warn predators that its skin is toxic.1

Ukuba umntu usichukumisile okanye usityile

Ukuba umntu usichukumisile: hlamba izandla kakuhle kwaye ungachukumisi amehlo okanye umlomo. Ukuba umntwana okanye isilwanyana sasekhaya sisikhothile okanye sisityile: tsalela iziko lezityhefu okanye inombolo kaxakeka.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba usichukumisile okanye usityile: musa ukukhuhla amehlo okanye umlomo wakho, hlamba izandla zakho kwaye ufumane uncedo lwezonyango.

Asikuzingeli. Ityhefu yaso ikhona nje ukuze kungabikho nto isityayo. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

Its tadpoles eat only the eggs of their own species, and the parents feed them unfertilized eggs.1

Males defend territories of about 2 square metres and fight by wrestling, chasing and leaping, sometimes for over 1.5 hours.1

Female frogs choose a mate based on the quality of the male's well, not on his call.1

The climbing mantella is the only member of the Mantella genus that breeds in water-filled wells in trees, tree holes or broken bamboo stalks.1

Its chemical defence has developed in a similar way to that of the dart frogs of Dendrobatidae, although the two families are only distantly related.1
