Iintaka zeparrot ngabameli beentaka ezihlala kwiindawo ezingaqhelekanga. Ezinye iintlobo zikwagcinwa kwaye zikhuliswa eSwitzerland. Zizohlulwe ngeentsiba zazo ezisisiseko eziluhlaza kunye nokuchaphaza okumangalisayo okubomvu, orenji, nobhlowu.
Iintaka zeParrot ziyimimangaliso yombala we-filigree. Zineendawo eziluhlaza kwiintsiba zazo ezisisiseko. Kodwa ayisiyiyo indlela ehlala ngayo. Zinentloko ebomvu, izidlele ezibhlowu, iindawo zesifuba, uhlaza oluya lusiba orenji nobomvu. I-exotics enemibala imalunga ne-blue tit kwaye ineendawo ezikude zemvelaphi. Ubukhulu becala zivela kumahlathi ashinyeneyo, ezinye zivela kwizitiya zeziqithi zase-Indonesia, eNew Guinea, nakwiziqithi ezikude zoLwandle oluseMzantsi. Iintaka zaseTropiki zachazwa ngokwenzululwazi ngenkulungwane ye-19 neye-20. Iintaka ezisahlala nabafuyi eSwitzerland namhlanje kwaye ngamanye amaxesha ziboniswa kwimiboniso zivela kwizinto ezivela kumazwe angaphandle ukusuka kwisiqingatha sesibini senkulungwane yama-20.
Inani leentaka ezikhethekileyo zeparrot zaya eSwitzerland, ezizezi kuRomuald Burkard (1925-2004) eZurich kwaye kamva kwiBaar ZG. Isazi ngentlalo yoluntu salawula imisebenzi kaSika kwaye sagcina ingqokelela ekhethekileyo yeepholi kwindawo yakhe eyaziwayo, enkulu yaseBaar. Kodwa wayebalasele nasekugcineni nasekukhuliseni iintaka zesikhwenene. Umzekelo, ngo-1965 uHeinrich Bregulla (1930 - 2013) wamhambisela iintaka ze-bamboo parrot awayezibambe kumantla esiqithi sasePhilippine eLuzon. UBregulla kunye noBurkard banoxanduva lokuba i-parrot finches inokusekwa phantsi kokhathalelo lomntu kwaphela. I-Bregulla ilandele amatye anqabileyo, uBurkard uphumelele ukuzala inani leentlobo zezilwanyana okokuqala kweli lizwe.
Acclimatization kwiSiza
Inkampani yobunjineli bombane i-Bregulla yamisela i-New Hebrides kwinqanawa ye-passenger-cargo i-Thaitien ngo-1959, iceba ukuhamba kunye nokubukela iintaka yedwa iinyanga ezisibhozo. Oko kwenzeka phantse iminyaka engama-21. Ukususela ngowe-1980 wazinza eVanuatu kwiiLwandle eziMazantsi yaye ukusuka apho wenza uphando olwahlukahlukeneyo waza waqokelela amaphulo okuya eNew Caledonia, kwiZiqithi zeFiji, eTonga, kwiiSolomon Islands, nakwiiPhilippines. Ngoku elilizwe elizimeleyo, iVanuatu yayikade iyinxalenye yeAnglo-French Hebrides.
Okokugqibela, iBregulla wanikwa uxanduva lokuyilwa ngokutsha kwezitiya zezityalo nezilwanyana eNew Caledonia. Wayengowokuqala ukuzisa i-parrot-madine enemibala, ukumkani, i-manila, kunye ne-bamboo parrot-madine ephila eYurophu. Iintaka zangaphambili, ezincinci ezivela kwamanye amazwe zazisele zifile ngelo xesha. Kwakungenakwenzeka ukuba zifumaneke ngokuzalanisa. Oko kwakwahlukile ekungenisweni kweBregulla kuba wayesele eqhele ukutya okunye eSouth Seas.
Ngenxa yelizwe labo elitshisayo, i-parrot finches ithanda ukufudumala, kodwa ayizizo zonke iintlobo. Umzekelo, iBregulla yalinganisa amaqondo obushushu asebusuku amalunga ne-13 degrees kwindawo yokubambisa i-bamboo parrot finch, kangangokuba uRomuald Burkard wakwazile ukunikezela ingxelo yokuba ezi ntaka azikhathali kwaye zibhabha ngamandla kwi-aviary yangaphandle nakwiqondo lobushushu elipholileyo. .
