The tasseled scorpionfish is a venomous marine fish that lives on rocky reefs in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. It is the largest species in its genus, and its mottled colours help it blend in with the reef. It hides during the day, so swimmers in shallow water can tread on it by accident.1

Sihlala

Indo-Pacific: from the Red Sea to South Africa, east to New Guinea, south to Australia and north to Taiwan1

Ekhaya

It lives on reef slopes at depths of about 1 to 35 metres. In shallow water, swimmers may accidentally tread on it.1

Ubude

Sitya ntoni?

It is a nocturnal ambush predator that feeds on fishes and crustaceans. It waits for prey to come close rather than chasing it.1

Amava anetyhefu

Amava abukhali aphethe ityhefu. Ukusinyathela okanye ukusibamba kubuhlungu.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

Its spines are venomous, meaning they inject venom when they pierce the skin. Treading on one can cause painful injury.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

The main risk is painful injury from the venomous spines when a swimmer treads on the fish in shallow water.1

Ukuba amava aso ayakugwaza

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
