Chimpanzi imhando yetsoko huru. Ndezvemhuka dzinoyamwisa uye ihama dzepedyo dzevanhu. Muzvisikwa, vanogara pakati peAfrica chete. Imomo vanogara musango rinonaya mvura zhinji uye mumasango.
Kune mhando mbiri dzechimpanzi: "Common chimpanzee" inowanzonzi "chimpanzi". Imwe mhando ibonobo, inozivikanwawo se "pygmy chimpanzee". Zvakadaro, inenge saizi yakafanana neyechimpanzee asi inongogara mumasango anogara achinaya mvura.
Chimpanzi dzinenge mita kureba kubva kumusoro kusvika pasi. Kana dzakamira dzinenge dzakada kuenzana nemunhu mudiki. Hadzi dzinosvika 25 kusvika 50 kilograms, varume vanenge 35 kusvika 70 kilograms. Maoko ako akareba kupfuura makumbo ako. Dzine nzeve dzakatenderedzwa mumisoro yadzo uye dzakakora bhonzo dzakakora pameso adzo.
Chimpanzi dziri munjodzi huru. Chikonzero chikuru: vanhu vari kutora nzvimbo dzakawanda kubva kwavari nekubvisa sango nekudyara minda. Vatsvakurudzi, vanovhima zvisiri pamutemo, uye vashanyi vari kutapurira chimpanzi dzakawanda nezvirwere. Izvi zvinogona kurasikirwa neupenyu hwechimpanzi.
Machimpanzi anorarama sei?
Chimpanzees anowanzo fura mumiti, asiwo pasi. Vanonyatsodya zvose, asi kunyanya michero nenzungu. Asi mashizha, maruva, uye mhodzi zviriwo pazvokudya zvavo. Kunewo zvipembenene uye zvipuka zviduku zvakadai sezviremwaremwa, asiwo dzimwe tsoko.
Chimpanzi dzakanaka pakukwira dzakatenderedza miti. Vari pasi, vanofamba netsoka dzavo nemaoko. Zvisinei, havatsigirwi paruoko rwose, asi chete paminwe yechipiri neyechitatu. Kwatiri isu vanhu, ndizvo zvingava munwe weindex uye wepakati.
Tsotsi dzinomuka masikati uye dzinorara usiku, kungofanana nevanhu. Husiku hwega hwega vanovaka dendere idzva remashizha pamuti. Havagoni kushambira. Chimpanzi chinowanzoshandisa maturusi: zvidimbu zvematanda sesando kana zvimiti pakuchera kana kuburitsa mujuru mumigodhi yadzo.
Chimpanzi mhuka dzinogarisana nevamwe. Vanogara mumapoka makuru kana kuti vakakamurwa kuita mapoka maduku. Kana iri chimpanzee, murume ndiye anowanzova mukuru, kana iri bonobos, kazhinji imukadzi. Machimpanzi ose anonamira makushe emumwe nokunonga tumbuyu nedzimwe mhuka duku kubva kune imwe.
Machimpanzi anoberekana sei?
Chimpanzi dzinogona kukwira gore rose. Zvakafanana nevakadzi, vakadzi vanoenda kumwedzi mavhiki mashanu kusvika matanhatu ega ega. Mimba inotora mwedzi minomwe kusvika misere. Ndiko kureba kunoita amai vachitakura mwana wavo mudumbu. Kazhinji inongozvara mwana mumwechete panguva. Kune mapatya mashoma.
Mwana wechimpanzi anorema kirogiramu imwe kana maviri. Inobva yanwa mukaka kubva mumazamu amai vayo kweanenge makore mana kusvika mashanu. Asi zvino zvinogara naamai kwenguva refu.
Chimpanzi dzinofanirwa kunge dzave nemakore manomwe kusvika mapfumbamwe dzisati dzave nevana vadzo. Muboka, zvisinei, vanofanira kumirira. Machimpanzi akajairika ane makore 13 kusvika ku16 asati ava vabereki pachavo. Musango, machimpanzi anorarama makore anosvika 30 kusvika ku40, uye munzvimbo inochengeterwa mhuka kazhinji anenge makore 50.
