Ityhefu esikhumbeni sasoSitya: IzinambuzaneSiyatyhefa, asinatyhefu yokuluma okanye yokuhlabaThe European fire-bellied toad is a medium-sized frog that lives in ponds and marshes across Central and Eastern Europe. It is famous for its bright red belly, which it shows off to warn predators that it is toxic. Its loud 'whoop' call is also distinctive.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela
- Medium-sized frog, growing up to about 5.6 cm.1
- Back colour can be grey, brown or green, and is covered in warts.1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: The yellow-bellied toad (Bombina variegata) is closely related and the two can hybridise where they overlap. The yellow-bellied toad lives at higher elevations in ponds that dry up quickly, has longer legs and thicker skin, and cannot call as loudly.1
Amandla etyhefu
Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.
Ityhefu yaso etyhefayo (xa usichukumisa okanye usitya) yenza ntoni?
The skin of this toad contains bombinins, which have antibacterial and antifungal effects. Its red belly warns predators that its skin is toxic.1
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

When threatened, it lifts its arms, sometimes flipping over, to expose its red belly and warn predators of its toxicity.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
The antifungal effect of bombinins in the skin makes them promising for use in food packaging to slow spoilage.1
A population in Lorraine, France, lives more than 500 km from its natural range, probably because people moved them there on purpose.1
Dozens of ponds dug in Funen County, Denmark, helped increase the population about five-fold in a decade.1
The prokineticin family of compounds was first discovered in this species and the yellow-bellied toad.1
