Red-bellied newt
Ityhefu esikhumbeni sasoSiyatyhefa, asinatyhefu yokuluma okanye yokuhlabaThe red-bellied newt is a small amphibian with a brownish-black back and a bright red belly. It lives in coastal woodlands in northern California, mostly on land. Its skin is poisonous, so it is important to leave it alone.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela
- Brownish-black upper body with grainy skin1
- Tomato-red underbelly1
- Length of about 7 to 9 cm from nose to vent, and 14 to 19 cm including the tail1
- Males often have a dark, broad patch across the vent; females do not1
- Breeding males have smooth skin and a flattened tail1
Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: Other coastal newts are similar in shape. The red-bellied newt can be told apart by its red belly and by the lack of yellow in its eyes.1
Amandla etyhefu
Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.
Ityhefu yaso etyhefayo (xa usichukumisa okanye usitya) yenza ntoni?
The red-bellied newt is poisonous rather than venomous, so it does not bite or sting. Its skin, eggs and embryos contain tetrodotoxin, a neurotoxin, which is a poison that attacks the nerves. There is enough of it to potentially kill an adult human.1
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: Kubi kakhuluUkuba umntu uyasichukumisa okanye uyasitya, yiya kugqirha. Ukufa kunqabe kakhulu.The newt's skin is poisonous to touch and to eat. Its toxin is strong enough to potentially kill an adult human. It is also nearly inedible, and few animals eat it.1
Senza ntoni xa soyika?
When disturbed, it pulls its head and tail back to show its bright-red underside, which warns predators that it is poisonous.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
Like other newts, they can regrow several body parts, including their limbs, eyes, hearts, intestines, jaws and damaged spinal cords.1
They can find their way back to the same spot in a stream over several miles of rugged terrain, probably by using their sense of smell.1
Red-bellied newts can live for 20 to 30 years.1
Adults leave the water and live underground until they are ready to breed, which usually happens after four to six years.1
Females do not breed every year, unlike the males.1
