The Oriental fire-bellied toad is a small frog that lives in northeastern Asia, mostly near slow streams, ponds and forests. Its bright belly is a warning: when it is disturbed, it gives off a mild toxin through its skin. It is common across much of its range.1

在陆地上, 粗略估计

它吃什么？

Adults eat land invertebrates such as worms, molluscs and insects. Tadpoles eat algae, fungi, detritus, plants and protozoans. The toad cannot extend its tongue, so it catches prey by leaping at it.1

怎样认出它

Bright grey, brownish or green upper skin with black mottling.1
Bright yellow, red or orange-red belly, mottled with dark spots.1
Red finger and toe tips are usually present.1
Skin on the upper side is covered in small bumps called tubercles, which give it a toad-like look.1
Adults are about 3.8 to 5.1 cm long.1

常被误认为： It is often mistaken for a toad, but it is not a true toad. Compared with other Bombina frogs, it has no gular sacs (throat pouches), its belly is usually more red than yellow, and it has bright finger tips.1

毒力

皮肤里有毒

它的皮肤有毒。摸、舔或吃都很危险。

它的毒会造成什么？

The toad's skin releases a milky, mildly toxic substance when it is disturbed or frightened, mostly from the hind legs and sometimes the belly. Its toxins are described as mild, and the toxin does not pose a significant threat to human health. Captive toads are generally less toxic than wild ones, because their diet in the wild adds to their toxicity.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 轻微像被蜜蜂蜇一下或更轻。对人基本无害。

The toxin does not pose a significant threat to human health, but its skin mucus can cause discomfort to the mouth and eyes if the toad is handled.1

它害怕时会做什么？

When threatened, it releases toxin from its skin, lies on its back to show its brightly coloured belly, and arches its head and holds up its limbs as a warning.1

如果有人碰了或吃了它

如果有人碰了它：好好洗手，不要碰眼睛或嘴巴。如果孩子或宠物舔了或吃了它：打电话给中毒急救中心或急救电话。

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。急救基础

注意安全

永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物，即使是很小的，即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
给它留出空间。如果遇到它，保持冷静，慢慢后退，让它走自己的路。
如果你碰了或吃了它：不要揉眼睛或嘴巴，洗手并就医。

它不是冲着你来的。它的毒只是为了不被吃掉。更多安全知识

值得了解

事实

Unusually for a frog, this species has no eardrum or resonator, and it makes its calls by inhaling.1

In experiments, these toads learned to solve mazes using water as a reward, which other frog types did not manage.1

Its skin contains bombesin, a peptide that affects stomach function in mammals. It was first found in its relative, the European fire-bellied toad.1

Males call to females with a light sound that is compared to a musical triangle.1

Grass snakes and other water-dwelling snakes are known to eat these toads without any ill effect.1

In captivity they often live for around 12 years, and some have lived up to 30 years.1

谣言粉碎机

谣言： It is a true toad.

真相： It is not a true toad, although its bumpy skin gives it a toad-like appearance.1
