The giant leaf frog is a large tree frog with lime green skin and a white or cream belly. It lives in the rainforests of the Amazon basin in South America. Its skin releases chemicals that act as a defence against predators.1

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

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

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

The giant leaf frog's skin secretion contains opioid peptides, including deltorphin and dermorphin. Its skin peptides act as a chemical defence against predators. In kambo rituals, where the secretion is used, it induces intense vomiting.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKunokuba buhlungu ngokwenene, kodwa phantse akusoze kube kubi kakhulu.

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

When threatened, its skin produces peptides that act as a chemical defence against predators.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

1

Its skin secretion is known as Vacina do sapo, or frog vaccine, and is used in a ritual called kambo or sapo.1

Up to 61% of the eggs of the giant leaf frog are eaten by predators.1

3

Males fight rivals for mating rights by using their heads to separate a rival male from a female, and by pushing with their hind legs.1

4

Males are more likely to be targeted by predators during mating season, because their loud fights can be heard easily.1

5

Eggs are eaten by rove beetles, phorid flies, possibly tufted capuchins and banded cat-eyed snakes, because they are a source of protein.1
