The Golfodulcean poison frog is a small, brightly marked frog that lives only in Costa Rica. Its skin contains a strong nerve poison, so it is one of the most toxic frogs in its genus, and it is a reminder that bright colours can be a warning. It lives in wet forests near streams.1

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

Sihlala

Endemic to Costa Rica1

uMntla Melika

Ekhaya

It lives in lowland moist and wet forests, both primary (old-growth) and secondary (regrowing), at heights of 20 to 550 metres above sea level. It is a daytime, ground-dwelling frog that stays close to streams. Eggs are laid on leaves above the ground.1

Sitya ntoni?

It feeds on insects and other small invertebrates. Captive frogs have no toxin, which suggests the frogs take up their poison from this food rather than making it themselves.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela

The body is black, but it can look glittery because of pigments in the skin.1
Two stripes run down the back from just above the vent to the tip of the nose. They are usually fire orange, but can be golden, yellow or green.1
The legs are mottled blue, and the sides often have a blue or green marble pattern.1
It is a fairly large poison frog for its genus, with a smooth, sloping back. Its shoulder blades are usually hidden under the skin, so it can look a little plump.1
Females are typically larger than males. Adults reach about 3.5 cm long.1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: The related P. bicolor and P. terribilis have visible shoulder blades under the skin, which the Golfodulcean poison frog usually lacks, so it looks smoother and rounder.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

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

Its skin contains batrachotoxin, a neurotoxic alkaloid poison, which attacks the nerves. A large enough dose causes severe pain, then tonic-clonic seizures (violent convulsions) and paralysis.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

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

It is highly toxic, though it is only the fourth most toxic species in the genus Phyllobates. The poison is in the skin, so the risk comes from handling the frog or getting the poison from its skin into the body.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

Its bright, multi-coloured body advertises its toxin as a warning to 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

It is one of the few frogs whose poison is named batrachotoxin, a potent nerve toxin.1

Its climbing toe pads stick to leaves in a similar way to geckos, and it can climb out of an unsealed container.1

Male frogs carry their tadpoles on their backs, often for 1 to 2 days, to puddles, pools in palm leaves, or water-filled tree holes.1

Frogs in captivity have no toxin, which shows that their poison comes from what they eat.1

Its skin holds a large amount of poison, because it is comparatively large for a poison dart frog.1

The tadpoles become frogs after about 45 days, and the young frogs become sexually mature after ten months.1
