1. Skin Irritation: Handling frogs or coming into contact with their skin secretions may cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some individuals. This can manifest as redness, itching, or rash. It's essential to wash hands thoroughly after handling frogs or their habitats.

2. Pathogen Transmission: Amphibians, including Alytidae frogs, can harbor various pathogens, including bacteria (e.g., Salmonella), fungi (e.g., Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis), and parasites (e.g., nematodes). While transmission to humans is relatively rare, it's essential to practice good hygiene when handling amphibians to minimize the risk of infection.

3. Salmonella: Like many amphibians, Alytidae frogs can carry Salmonella bacteria. Salmonella infection (salmonellosis) in humans can cause symptoms such as diarrhea, abdominal cramps, fever, nausea, and vomiting. These symptoms can range from mild to severe, particularly in young children, the elderly, or individuals with weakened immune systems.

4. Precautions: To minimize the risk of health issues associated with handling Alytidae frogs or other amphibians:

   • Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling frogs or their habitats.
   • Avoid touching your face, mouth, or eyes while handling amphibians.
   • Do not eat, drink, or smoke near amphibian habitats or while handling frogs.
   • Supervise children closely to ensure they do not put frogs or their hands in their mouths.
   • Clean and disinfect any surfaces or equipment that come into contact with amphibians.

Legend

• The interactions are based on data from 1000 healthy individuals using shotgun 10M reads Precision Biome, a provider in full conformity to EU regulations for health information
• The width of the lines indicates R² (the coefficient of determination)
• Green indicates positive slope
• Red indicates negative
• Interactions are not two way because incidence of each bacteria are different
