ʻO ka pūnana he lua i hana ʻia e nā holoholona. Moe ka holoholona i loko o kēia lua a noho paha i loko e like me kā kākou poʻe kānaka e noho nei. Hāpai nā holoholona he nui i kā lākou keiki i loko o kahi pūnana, ʻoi aku ka manu. Kapa ʻia nā hua a i ʻole nā keiki ʻōpio he "clutches" no ka mea ua waiho ka makuahine i nā hua. Ua kapa ʻia kēlā mau pūnana he "pūnana gated".
ʻOkoʻa nā pūnana ma muli o nā ʻano holoholona. Ke hoʻohana ʻia no ka ʻōhua hua a hānai ʻana paha, hoʻopaʻa pono ʻia nā pūnana me ka hulu, ka limu, a me nā mea kūlohelohe ʻē aʻe. Nui nā holoholona i hoʻohana i nā mea mai ke kanaka e like me nā ʻāpana lole a i ʻole nā mea ʻē aʻe e loaʻa iā lākou.
Hoʻokumu maoli kekahi mau holoholona i nā pūnana no kā lākou ʻōpiopio. ʻAʻole pono lākou e noʻonoʻo lōʻihi i kahi a pehea e kūkulu ai i kā lākou pūnana. Aia kekahi mau holoholona e hana wale i ka punana e moe ai, e like me nā gorila a me nā orangutans. Ke kūkulu nei kēia mau monkey i wahi moe hou i kēlā me kēia pō.
He aha ke ʻano o nā pūnana paʻa?
Kūkulu pinepine nā manu i ko lākou pūnana ma nā kumulāʻau i hiki ʻole i nā mea ʻaihue ke komo i nā hua a me nā ʻōpio. Eia naʻe, hana pinepine nā mea ʻaihue e like me nā squirrels a i ʻole martens. Kūkulu ʻia nā pūnana ma kahakai a i ʻole ma nā mokupuni e lana ana i nā lālā. Pono nā mākua manu e pale i kā lākou mau hua iā lākou iho. ʻO nā swans, no ka laʻana, he haku o kēia. Hoʻokumu ʻia nā pūnana lāʻau a me nā manu ʻē aʻe i loko o nā lua lāʻau.
ʻO nā pūnana o nā manu ʻai nui e like me nā ʻaeto he kiʻekiʻe a paʻakikī ke loaʻa. ʻAʻole i kapa hou ʻia kēia mau pūnana akā he lio. No ka ʻaeto, ua kapa ʻia kēia pūnana ʻaeto.
ʻO nā manu ʻōpiopio e ulu ana i loko o kahi pūnana i kapa ʻia ʻo "nā pūnana". ʻO kēia mau mea e pili ana i nā ʻuʻu, nā finches, nā manu ʻeleʻele, nā kikoo, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe he nui. Akā naʻe, ʻaʻole hana nā manu he nui i nā pūnana akā e ʻimi wale i kahi kūpono e waiho ai i kā lākou mau hua, e like me kā mākou moa home. Holo wikiwiki loa nā holoholona ʻōpio. ʻO ia ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai lākou he "pēdators".
ʻEli pinepine nā mōʻī i nā lua no ko lākou pūnana. ʻIke ʻia nā ʻalopeke a me nā ʻino no kēia. Hoʻolālā ʻia nā pūnana o nā bea ma ke ʻano e pono ai nā mākua a me nā ʻenemi e ʻau i ka wai e komo ai i loko o ka pūnana. ʻO nā pipi, nā puaʻa, nā lapeti, a me nā mea momona ʻē aʻe he nui nō hoʻi e noho i loko o ka pūnana no kekahi manawa ma hope o ka hānau ʻana.
Akā he nui nō hoʻi nā mammals hiki ke hana me ka pūnana ʻole. ʻO nā keiki bipi, nā keiki ʻōpio, nā ʻelepani ʻōpio, a me nā mea ʻē aʻe he nui loa e ala koke ma hope o ka hānau ʻana a hahai i ko lākou makuahine. He mau momi hoʻi nā koholā. ʻAʻohe o lākou pūnana a hahai i ko lākou makuahine ma ke kai.
Hoʻokumu nā ʻōpala i nā pūnana kūikawā. Hoʻokumu nā pi a me nā nalo i nā lei hexagonal. Hana nā ʻanuʻu i mau puʻu a i ʻole hana lākou i ko lākou pūnana ma ka lepo a i ʻole ma ka lāʻau make. ʻEli ka hapa nui o nā mea kolo i loko o ke one a waiho i ka mehana o ka lā e hoʻomoʻa i kā lākou mau hua ma laila.
