Hoʻopili pinepine ʻia nā rapeti me nā hares: ʻano like loa lākou, akā ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o nā rabbit a ʻoi aku ka pōkole o nā pepeiao.

He aha ke ʻano o nā lākeke?
No ka ʻohana lagomorph nā lākeke a he mau mammals. Ma ke ala, ʻaʻole pili lākou i nā rodents. He ʻuʻuku liʻiliʻi nā rapeti: mai ke poʻo a lalo he 34 a 45 mau kenimika ka lōʻihi, 16 a 18 mau kenimika ke kiʻekiʻe a me ke kaumaha o hoʻokahi a hiki i ʻekolu kilokani.
ʻEono a ʻekolu ʻīniha ka lōʻihi o ko lākou mau pepeiao a kū mau. He mea maʻamau ia no nā lākeke ʻeleʻele ka lihi o luna o nā pepeiao. ʻO kona huelo, ʻehā a ʻewalu kenimika ka lōʻihi, ua like me ka ʻili hulu hipa. He ʻeleʻele ma luna a he keʻokeʻo ma lalo.
Hiki i ka hulu o nā rapeti ke beige, ʻeleʻele, hina, ʻeleʻele, a keʻokeʻo paha. He hiʻohiʻona kūikawā ko nā lapeti: ulu hou ko lākou mau ʻoki i ko lākou ola ʻana. He paʻakikī ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i nā kāne a me nā wahine. Kapa ʻia nā holoholona kāne he bucks, ʻo nā lapeti wahine.
Hoʻopili pinepine ʻia nā rapeti me nā hares. Akā he 40 a 76 kenimika ke kiʻekiʻe o nā lākeke a hiki i ʻehiku kilokani ke kaumaha. Eia kekahi, ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ko lākou mau pepeiao ma mua o nā lapeti.
Ma hea kahi e noho ai nā lākeke?
I ka wā ma mua, aia wale nō paha nā lapiti ahiu ma ka Iberian Peninsula, ʻo ia hoʻi ma Sepania a me Pokukala a ma ʻApelika Komohana Komohana. Eia naʻe, mālama ʻia lākou e nā kānaka i ka wā ma mua a lawe ʻia i nā mokupuni Pelekane, ʻIlelani, ʻo Suedena hema, a me nā mokupuni ʻo Canary.
I kēia lā, aia lākou ma ka home kokoke i nā wahi a pau o ka honua no ka mea, ua lawe ʻia nā rabbit i mālama ʻia e nā poʻe noho ʻEulopa a haʻalele ʻia: Noho lākou ma Australia a me New Zealand a ma ʻAmelika Hema e like me nā wahi maloʻo me nā one a me ka lepo a me nā lepo pōhaku. Loaʻa lākou ma nā steppes mauʻu, nā ʻāina paka, a me nā ululāʻau liʻiliʻi. I kēia lā, akā, manaʻo lākou i ka home ma nā māla a me nā māla.
He aha nā ʻano o nā lapeti i laila?
ʻO ka hare ʻeleʻele a me ka hare mauna pili pili loa i ka lapeti. Ma waho aʻe o nā lapeti hihiu, aia i kēia manawa ma kahi o 100 mau ʻano lapeti like ʻole i hānai ʻia e nā kānaka a mālama ʻia ma ke ʻano he mau holoholona. Ua kaulana lākou ma muli o kā lākou ʻiʻo, akā, no ko lākou hulu a me ka hulu hipa, e like me nā rabbit Angora lauoho lōʻihi. ʻO ka inoa o kahi ʻano puaʻa kūikawā he huikau: ʻo ia ka hare rabbit.
ʻAʻole lākou he keʻa ma waena o ka hare a me ka rabbit - ʻaʻole hiki ke ola - akā he ʻano mai kahi ʻano rabbit Belgian, ka pilikua Belgian. ʻOi aku ka nui o nā rapeti hare ma mua o nā rapeti ʻē aʻe, ʻo ke kaumaha he 3.5 a 4.25 kilokani. He lōʻihi a nani kona kino. He ʻulaʻula ko lākou hulu, e like me ko ka lapeti hihiu.
ʻEhia mau makahiki o ka lākeke?
Hiki i nā lākeke ke ola a hiki i ka ʻumi, i kekahi manawa he ʻumikūmālua makahiki.

Pehea ke ola ʻana o nā lākeke?
ʻOi aku ka ʻeleu o nā rapeti i ka pō. Noho lākou ma kahi paʻa ma kahi o hoʻokahi kilomika square ke anawaena. Aia i laila ko lākou lua lalo kahi i palekana a pale ʻia mai nā ʻenemi. ʻO kēia mau lua he mau lālā lālā a hiki i 2.7 mika ka hohonu. I kekahi manawa noho lākou ma nā māwae a me nā lua ma ka ili o ka honua. He mau holoholona launa loa na rapeti: Aia a hiki i 25 mau holoholona ka ohana rabbit.
ʻO ka mea maʻamau, noho pū kekahi kāne makua, nā wahine, a me nā holoholona ʻōpio he nui. ʻO ka "poʻo" o ka ʻohana ke kāne. ʻAʻole ʻae ʻia nā holoholona ʻē mai kahi ʻohana ʻē aʻe akā ua kipaku ʻia.
Ke ʻimi lākou i ka meaʻai, hiki iā lākou ke hele a hiki i ʻelima mau kilomita. Hoʻohana mau lākou i nā ala like: I kekahi manawa hiki iā ʻoe ke ʻike i kēia mau ala i ka mauʻu no ka mea hehi maikaʻi lākou. Ua kapa ʻia kēlā mau ala he ʻano hoʻololi. He ʻano maʻamau o ka neʻe ʻana o nā lapeti: lele lākou a lele.
Hiki iā lākou ke scuttle ke ʻimi ʻia; ʻo ia hoʻi, hoʻololi lākou i ka ʻaoʻao me ka wikiwiki o ka uwila a pēlā e hoʻoluliluli ai i ka poʻe hahai. Hiki ke lohe maikaʻi nā lapeti. He mea nui kēia i hiki iā lākou ke ʻike i nā pōʻino i ka nahelehele a holo i ka manawa maikaʻi.
No ka hiki iā lākou ke hoʻoneʻe kūʻokoʻa i nā pepeiao ʻelua, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻolohe i mua me kekahi pepeiao a i hope me kekahi i ka manawa like - no laila ʻaʻole lākou e poina i kahi kani. Eia kekahi, hiki ke ʻike maikaʻi nā lākeke, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma kahi mamao a i ke ahiahi, a hiki iā lākou ke honi maikaʻi loa.
Ua mālama ʻia nā rapeti e nā Roma ma kahi o 2000 mau makahiki i hala. Ua waiwai nui lākou i kēia mau holoholona ma ke ʻano he mea hoʻolako ʻiʻo. He paʻakikī ka mālama ʻana i nā lapeti ʻāhiu i loko o ka pā no ka mea ʻaʻole lākou i kaʻa a hilahila loa. ʻOi aku ka nui a me ka mālie o nā ʻano lapiti o kēia mau lā ma mua o nā lapeti hihiu. Akā, i ka wā e pakele ai nā lapeti, lilo koke lākou i mea ʻai a ola e like me ko lākou mau kūpuna hihiu.
ʻO nā hoaaloha a me nā ʻenemi o ka lapeti
He nui nā ʻenemi o nā rapeti: ʻo nā holoholona ʻaihue a pau mai nā stoats, martens, a me nā alopeke a i nā ʻīlio hae, nā lynx, a me nā bea e hahai iā lākou. Akā ʻo nā pueo nui a me nā manu ʻai a me nā manu koraka hiki ke pilikia iā lākou. No ka wikiwiki o ka hānau ʻana, ua ʻimi nui ʻia lākou e nā kānaka ma kekahi mau ʻāina.
