Lehmann's poison frog is a small, brightly marked frog that lives only in a small part of western Colombia. Its skin produces strong toxins, and its bright colours warn predators to leave it alone. It is critically endangered, so it matters for conservation as well as for safety.1

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

Sihlala

Endemic to western Colombia, in Valle del Cauca and Chocó departments, on the slopes of the Cordillera Occidental1

uMzantsi Melika

Ekhaya

It lives in submontane tropical rainforest, mostly on the forest floor and in low vegetation. Occasionally it is found in low shrubs and trees. It lives at heights of 600 to 1,200 metres.1

Ubude

3,1 cm ukuya ku-3,6 cm (1,2 in ukuya ku-1,4 in)1

Esona santya siphezulu

malunga ne-3,7 km/h (2,3 mph)

Sitya ntoni?

It is active during the day and mainly eats small insects it finds on the forest floor and in low vegetation. Tadpoles are fed unfertilised eggs by their parents.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela

Black or dark brown background with two bright, broad bands of colour round the body1
Coloured bands on the arms and legs, and on the belly1
Red, orange or yellow colour forms; each frog has its own unique pattern1
Males have silver-tipped toes1
Adults measure 31 to 36 mm from snout to vent1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: The harlequin poison frog (Oophaga histrionicus) looks very similar and can interbreed with it. Scientists still debate whether Lehmann's poison frog is a separate species. The main difference is that Lehmann's frog lacks histrionicotoxins, a type of toxin found in the harlequin frog. Males also have calls that differ between northern and southern populations.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

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

It is not venomous. Its skin produces toxins, including alkaloids such as pumiliotoxins, that can be very poisonous. Frogs bred in captivity are not poisonous, because their diet lacks the chemicals needed to make the toxins.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: Kubi kakhuluUkuba umntu uyasichukumisa okanye uyasitya, yiya kugqirha. Ukufa kunqabe kakhulu.

The skin toxins can be very poisonous to predators, and some native tribes of Colombia used them to coat their darts. Frogs in captivity are not poisonous.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

Its bright, vivid colours act as a warning to predators that it is inedible.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

kufanelekile ukwazi

Iinyaniso

In the wild, this frog is toxic, but frogs kept in captivity lose their toxicity because the toxins come from their diet.1

Tadpoles in the same pool may eat each other, so the male carries them to separate water pools.1

The male is the one who guards the eggs and carries the tadpoles on his back for two to four weeks.1

Its skin toxins are being studied for possible medicinal uses.1

Its bright colours are a warning, a strategy called aposematism.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: Lehmann's poison frog is always poisonous.

Inyaniso: Wild frogs are toxic, but frogs bred in captivity are not, because their diet lacks the chemicals needed to make the poison.1
