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

The golden mantella's skin toxins come from the small invertebrates it eats, not from its own body.1

2

A snake called Thamnosophis lateralis and a skink of the genus Zonosaurus have been seen preying on it at Torotorofotsy Wetland, even though it is poisonous.1

3

Its bright colours are an example of aposematism, a warning signal to predators about its poison.1

4

It has a convergent evolution link with the poison dart frogs of Central and South America, which are not closely related but share similar traits.1

5

It is popular in the pet trade because it is active during the day, has attractive colours and is fairly easy to keep.1

6

Males often call from hidden spots near water, and their call is a pleasant, repeated click.1
