Pehea ke ano o ka Nile monitor?

No ka ʻohana moʻo moʻo ka Nile a no laila he mau mea kolo. Ua noho ko lākou mau kūpuna ma ka honua ma kahi o 180 miliona makahiki aku nei. Ua uhi ʻia ko lākou kino me nā unahi liʻiliʻi, he ʻōmaʻomaʻo-ʻeleʻele ko lākou kala a loaʻa ke ʻano o nā kiko melemele a me nā kaha ākea. He melemele ka ʻōpū me nā kiko ʻeleʻele. Loaʻa nā hōʻailona melemele ʻōmaʻomaʻo o nā ʻōpio ma kahi ʻeleʻele. Eia naʻe, mae ka waihoʻoluʻu o ka Nile monitor i ka wā e ʻelemakule ai.

He mau moʻo nui loa nā moʻo Nile: ʻO ko lākou kino he 60 a 80 kenimika ka lōʻihi, me ko lākou huelo ikaika e ana lākou a hiki i ʻelua mika ka nui. ʻO ko lākou poʻo he lohi a ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi ma mua o ke kino, ʻo ka puka ihu ma kahi o ka hapalua ma waena o ka piko o ka ihu a me nā maka, a he lōʻihi ka ʻāʻī.

ʻEhā mau wāwae pōkole ikaika me nā maiuu ʻoi ma nā welau. Nui nā mea kolo i pani ʻia ko lākou mau niho me nā niho hou i ko lākou ola ʻana; ʻokoʻa ka nānā Nile. ʻAʻole ulu mau kona mau niho, akā hoʻololi i ka wā o kona ola. I loko o nā holoholona ʻōpiopio, ʻōhiʻi a kiko nā niho. E ʻoi aʻe lākou a blunter me ka piʻi ʻana o ka makahiki a lilo i molar maoli. ʻO kekahi mau moʻo kiaʻi kahiko he mau hakahaka ko nā niho no ka mea ʻaʻole i pani hou ʻia nā niho kahiko i hāʻule i waho.

Ma hea kahi e noho ai nā kiaʻi Nile?

Noho nā mākaʻi Nile ma lalo o Saharan Africa mai ʻAigupita a i ʻApelika Hema. Noho nā moʻo nānā ʻē aʻe ma nā ʻāpana ʻāina a me nā subtropical o ʻApelika, Asia, Australia, a me Oceania. ʻO nā kiaʻi Nile i waena o nā mea nānā e like me kahi noho pulu. No laila, ʻike pinepine ʻia lākou ma kahi kokoke i nā muliwai a i ʻole nā ​​loko i loko o nā ululāʻau māmā a me nā savannas a i ʻole ma nā kapa pali o ka wai.

ʻO wai nā ʻano mea nānā Nile ma laila?

ʻElua mau ʻano ʻano o ka nānā ʻana o ka Nile: ʻaʻole maopopo ka māka ʻia ʻo Varanus niloticus niloticus i ka melemele, ʻoi aku ka ikaika o ka waihoʻoluʻu ʻo Varanus niloticus ornatus. Aia ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o ʻApelika. I kēia lā, he 47 mau ʻano moʻo nānā like ʻole mai ʻApelika a hiki i ka Hema a me Asia Hema a hiki i Australia. Ma waena o ka nui loa ma ka Hikina Hema ʻo Komodo dragon, i ʻōlelo ʻia a hiki i ʻekolu mika ka lōʻihi a me 150 kilokani i ke kaumaha. ʻO nā ʻano ʻano ʻē aʻe ʻē aʻe ʻo ka nānā wai, ka steppe monitor a i ʻole ka emerald monitor e noho kokoke ana ma luna o nā kumulāʻau.

ʻEhia makahiki e loaʻa ai nā mea nānā Nile?

Hiki i nā mea nānā Nile ke ola a hiki i 15 mau makahiki.

Hana

Pehea ka noho ana o na kiai Nile?

Ua loaʻa i ka Nile ko lākou inoa mai ka Nile, ka muliwai nui o ʻApelika ma ka ʻākau-hikina ʻApelika. Hoʻoikaika nā holoholona i ka lā - akā aia wale nō i ka wā i pumehana ai i ka lā ala maoli lākou. Noho nui nā kiaʻi Nile ma kahi o nā lua wai. ʻO ia ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai lākou i kekahi manawa iguanas wai. Ma nā kapa o ka wai, hana lākou i nā lua he mau mika ka lōʻihi.

Noho nā mea nānā Nile ma ka honua, hiki iā lākou ke holo wikiwiki. I kekahi manawa piʻi lākou i nā kumulāʻau a ma luna o kēlā, he poʻe ʻauʻau maikaʻi a nani a hiki ke noho i lalo o ka wai a hiki i hoʻokahi hola me ka ʻole o ka hanu. Ke hoʻoweliweli ʻia, holo lākou i nā loko a me nā muliwai. He kaʻawale nā ​​mea nānā Nile, akā ma nā wahi maikaʻi me ka nui o ka meaʻai, noho pū kekahi mau ʻano mea nānā like ʻole i kekahi manawa.

He hiʻohiʻona hōʻike hōʻike maikaʻi nā Nile monitors: Ke hoʻoweliweli ʻia, hoʻonui lākou i ko lākou kino i ʻike nui ʻia. ʻO lākou hoʻi me ka hāmama o ko lākou waha - he mea hoʻoweliweli kēia mau mea āpau no kēlā holoholona nui. ʻO kā lākou mea kaua maikaʻi, ʻo ko lākou huelo: hiki iā lākou ke hoʻohana iā ia e hahau ikaika e like me ka hahau. A ʻo kā lākou nahu ʻana he ʻeha loa, ʻoi aku ka ʻeha ma mua o nā moʻo nānā ʻē aʻe.

Ma keʻano laulā, i ka wā e hālāwai ai me nā mākaʻikaʻi Nile, kāhea ʻia ka mahalo: Manaʻo ʻia lākou he lālā ʻoi loa a koʻikoʻi o ko lākou ʻohana.

Nānā nā hoa a me nā ʻenemi o ka Nile

Ma luna o nā mea a pau, he mea hoʻoweliweli ke kanaka e nānā i nā moʻo. No ka laʻana, ua hana ʻia ka ʻili o ka Nile monitor i ʻili; no laila ua hahai ʻia ka nui o kēia mau holoholona. Ma ke ʻano he ʻenemi maoli, makaʻu wale nā ​​​​moʻo i nā mea ʻaihue nui, nā manu ʻai a i ʻole nā ​​​​kokodile.

Pehea e hana hou ai na kia Nile?

E like me nā mea kolo, hoʻohua hua nā moʻo nānā. Hoʻomoe nā kahu Nile wahine i 10 a 60 mau hua ma nā puʻu anai. Hana ʻia kēia i ka wā ua, ʻoi aku ka palupalu o nā paia o nā lua a hiki i nā wahine ke wāwahi maʻalahi me ko lākou mau maiuu ʻoi. ʻO ka lua e waiho ai i kā lākou mau hua, ua pani hou ʻia e nā nalo. Mehana a mālama ʻia nā hua i loko o ka puʻu termite no ka mea e ulu wale ana lākou inā he 27 a 31°C ka mahana.

Ma hope o ʻehā a ʻumi mahina, ʻo ka ʻōpiopio a ʻeli i waho o ka puʻu nai. ʻO kā lākou ʻano a me kā lākou kala ʻana e hōʻoia i ka ʻike ʻole ʻia. I ka wā mua, noho maikaʻi lākou i hūnā ʻia i loko o nā kumulāʻau a me nā nahele. Ke 50 kenimika ka lōʻihi, hoʻololi lākou e noho ma ka ʻāina a ʻai i laila.

Pehea e kamaʻilio ai nā mākaʻi Nile?

Hiki i nā mea nānā Nile ke honi a hoʻohu.
