Ekhaya

It lives in sheltered, shallow coastal waters such as estuaries, harbours, mangrove pools and the lower parts of freshwater streams, especially where minerals are concentrated. Juveniles float in the surface film of the water.1

Sitya ntoni?

Adults eat a wide range of food, and a 1992 study of adults in the Philippines found they mainly ate plant matter. Juveniles prefer zooplankton, which are tiny animals that drift in the water.1

Amava anetyhefu

Amava abukhali aphethe ityhefu. Ukusinyathela okanye ukusibamba kubuhlungu.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

The spotted scat has small spines in its front parts that inject venom when it stings. The venom causes great pain and dizziness.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

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

Its sting causes great pain and dizziness. Some people catch and eat it in its native waters, so fishers and anyone handling the fish are most at risk of being stung.1

Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza

Treatment is often done by soaking the sting site in hot water.1
Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa (wavavanye ngesandla sakho), imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-90. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango, ingakumbi kwii-stonefish nakwii-stingray.

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 amava aso ayakugwaza: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Young scats live in freshwater and move to saltwater as they mature.1

The spotted scat comes in two colour forms, a green scat and a ruby or red scat.1
