Lovely poison frog

Phyllobates lugubris

只是會痛不要碰會痛，但不會對你造成嚴重傷害。

皮膚裡有毒有毒（碰或吃會中毒），不是有毒液

The lovely poison frog is a small, brightly striped frog that lives in the forests of Central America. Its skin is normally toxic, so it is a poisonous frog, and it is one of the species in the poison frog family Dendrobatidae.1

有毒還是有毒液？有毒液的動物會用咬或螫把毒液注入身體。有毒的動物則是碰到或吃下去會有害。這種動物是有毒的（碰或吃會中毒）。

分布在

Caribbean side of Central America, from southeastern Nicaragua through Costa Rica to northwestern Panama1

北美洲

長度

1,9 cm 到 2,4 cm (0,7 in 到 0,9 in)1

怎麼認出牠

The back is black with a pair of stripes that are usually pale yellow, gold or orange. The stripes run along the sides from near the back legs to the snout.1
The limbs are usually mottled yellow to greenish yellow.1
The belly is mottled with a lot of black, often so much that it looks almost solid black.1
Adult males measure 18.5 to 21 mm from snout to vent, and females 21 to 24 mm.1
It is active during the day and lives on the ground.1

常被誤認為： Populations on the Pacific side of Central America were once included in this species. They are now identified as Phyllobates vittatus, so the Pacific frogs are a different species.1

毒素力量

皮膚裡有毒

牠的皮膚有毒。碰、舔或吃牠都很危險。

牠的毒素有什麼作用？

This species is normally toxic, like other related poison frogs. Some populations in Central America are not known to be toxic.1

牠對人有多危險？

對人的危險: 疼痛可能會非常痛，但幾乎從來不會很嚴重。

如果有人碰了或吃了牠

如果有人碰了牠：把手徹底洗乾淨，不要碰眼睛或嘴巴。如果小孩或寵物舔了或吃了牠：打給毒物諮詢中心或打緊急電話。

一定要先打緊急電話（112、000、911）。這是一般急救指引，不是醫療建議。急救基本知識

注意安全

絕對不要碰、抓或捉弄野生動物，就算是很小的動物，就算牠看起來在睡覺或已經死了也一樣。
給牠空間。如果遇到了，保持冷靜，慢慢往後退，讓牠自己離開。
如果你碰了或吃了牠：不要揉眼睛或摸嘴巴，把手洗乾淨，並且就醫。

牠不是想來抓你。牠的毒只是為了不讓別的動物吃掉牠。更多安全知識

牠有多大？

牠有多長？

大約跟一根迴紋針一樣長可以在 110 秒內跑完 100 公尺（最快的人類需要 9.6 秒）

Lovely poison frog 跟「你」比起來有多大？

只是在你的瀏覽器裡做算術。什麼都不會儲存，也不會傳送到任何地方。

牠有多快？

一隻陸龜 大約 0,3 km/h (0,19 mph)

Lovely poison frog 大約 3,4 km/h (2,1 mph)

一個正在走路的人 大約 5 km/h (3,1 mph)

值得知道

小知識

Some Central American populations are not known to be toxic, unlike most of their relatives.1

After the eggs hatch, the father frog carries the tadpoles on his back to streams.1

The male protects the eggs from drying out, a method called hydric brooding.1
