The splash-backed poison frog is a fairly large, brightly coloured frog from the rainforests of the southern Amazon Basin in Brazil. It is poisonous, not venomous, which means its skin is harmful to touch or eat rather than injecting venom with a bite. Its colours vary a great deal, which has made it an interesting case for scientists studying bright colours in poisonous frogs.1

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

It lives in tropical moist lowland forests, where it has been seen up to 600 metres above sea level. It seems to prefer forests with large numbers of Brazil nut trees. Eggs are laid on the ground.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela

  • The best-known form is black below and yellow, orange or red above.1
  • Its colour is very variable. Some have whitish-mint or light blue upperparts, and some have a mottled or spotted pattern on top.1
  • Some individuals are almost all whitish, yellow-orange or black. Captive keepers call the whitish ones 'moonshine'.1
  • A relatively large poison dart frog, with a snout-vent length of up to 42 mm.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

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

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

Bright colour in poisonous frogs is often thought to warn predators away, but studies of this frog suggest the colour may matter more for recognising each other and for choosing mates.1

2

Adults carry their tadpoles to water, and scientists believe Brazil nut husks may be among the places they use.1

3

Its colours vary so much that some forms were once thought to be separate species, but genetic tests found almost no difference between them.1

4

The two most different-looking colour forms have largely the same poison profile.1

5

It is relatively common and regularly bred in captivity, but wild populations are still at risk from illegal collection.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: Bright colours on a poisonous frog always warn predators that it will poison them if they try to eat it.

Inyaniso: That is a longstanding interpretation, but studies of this frog suggest its colour may have more to do with recognising others of its kind and sexual selection than with deterring predators.1
