The tomato frog is a bright orange-red frog that lives only on the island of Madagascar. Its colour is a warning: its skin produces a sticky white substance that can cause an allergic reaction in people. It is also a species of conservation concern, because many have been taken for the pet trade.1

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

Sihlala

Endemic to Madagascar, mainly the northeast around Antongil Bay, south to Andevoranto1

Ubunzima

41 g ukuya ku-230 g (1,4 oz ukuya ku-8 oz)1

Esona santya siphezulu

malunga ne-4,6 km/h (2,9 mph)

Indlela yokusiqaphela

Vibrant orange-red colour on the back1
Females have brighter red or orange tones and a pale underside1
Some individuals have black spots on the throat1
Females are much larger than males1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: The tomato frog is closely related to D. guineti, and the two are often confused. It is not yet clear how far the tomato frog's range extends, or whether it is a separate species or a variant of D. guineti.1

Amandla etyhefu

Ityhefu esikhumbeni saso

Isikhumba saso siyatyhefa. Kuyingozi ukusichukumisa, ukusikhotha okanye ukusitya.

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

The tomato frog is poisonous to touch rather than venomous, as it does not inject venom. A white substance secreted from its skin acts as a glue and can produce an allergic reaction in humans.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuthambileNjengokuhlatywa yinyosi okanye ngaphantsi. Phantse asinangozi ebantwini.

The skin secretion can cause an allergic reaction in people.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

When threatened, it inflates its body to look larger, and its skin secretion acts as a sticky glue to deter predators.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

Females are much larger than males, reaching up to 230 g, while males reach only about 41 g.1

Each female can lay between 1,000 and 1,500 eggs at once, on the surface of the water.1

Tadpoles are only about 6 mm long when they hatch and feed by filter-feeding.1

Tadpoles turn into yellow juveniles about 45 days after the eggs were laid.1
