Akungabazeki: umzimba onamandla, ikhanda elincane elinekhala elide, kanye nezimpawu ezikhanyayo nezimnyama yizici ze-anteater enkulu.
Izici
Libukeka kanjani inhlwathi enkulu?
Inyamazane enkulu ingeyomndeni wezinyamazane futhi ngaleyo ndlela ingeyamaqembu amabili ezilwane ezinamagama angajwayelekile: isisekeli sezilwane ezihlangene kanye ne-oda elingenamazinyo.
Lezi zilwane zibizwa ngokuthi i-accessory articulates ngoba zinama-articular protuberances engeziwe ku-thoracic kanye ne-lumbar vertebrae, futhi zibizwa ngokuthi i-edentulous ngoba azinawo amazinyo.
Inyamazane enkulu ingamasentimitha ayi-100 kuya ku-120 ubude, umsila wayo ulinganisa amasentimitha angama-70 kuye kwangama-90. Unesisindo esingamakhilogremu angama-20 kuye kwangama-50. Isici esigqama kakhulu ikhala ende, elincanyana: Lifinyelela kumasentimitha angu-45 futhi linembobo encane yomlomo lapho kuhlangana khona ulimi olufika ku-60 cm ubude, olumise okwezimpethu, olunamathelayo.
Uboya obuminyene, obufika kumasentimitha angama-40 ubude, bumpunga ngokubomvu, izinqe, imilenze yangemuva kanye nomsila omude nonesihlahlana unombala onsundu ngokumnyama. Umugqa omnyama obanzi ohambisana nokugijima okumhlophe ukusuka entanyeni eqinile nasemahlombe ukuya ngemuva, okuba mncane futhi kube mncane.
Imilenze yangaphambili nayo iyabonakala: icishe ibe mhlophe futhi inebhande elibanzi elimnyama elivundlayo. Izinyawo zangaphambili nezangemuva ngayinye inezinzwane ezinhlanu ezinezinzipho. Izinzipho ezintathu ezimaphakathi zezinyawo zangaphambili zingamasentimitha ayi-10 ubude; zingamathuluzi aphelele okumba nokuzivikela.
Ngenxa yokuthi ikhanda elincane elinamadlebe amancane kanye nekhala elincanyana libukeka lithambile futhi umsila owugqinsi nobude obunoboya ubukeka unamandla, ukuma kwenyamazana enkulu kubonakala kungavamile kakhulu. Abesifazane nabesilisa babukeka ngokufanayo, abesifazane ngezinye izikhathi bakhudlwana kunabesilisa.
Zihlala kuphi izinyamazane ezinkulu?
Izinyamazane ezinkulu zisekhaya eMelika Ephakathi naseNingizimu. Lapho zivela eningizimu yeMexico kuya eParaguay nasenyakatho-ntshonalanga ye-Argentina.
Izinyamazane ezinkulu zihlala ezindaweni ezihlala emathafeni nasemahlathini asezintabeni - lezi yizicucu eziwumngcingo zehlathi ezihamba osebeni lwemifula nemifudlana. Nokho, ngezinye izikhathi zingatholakala nasezindaweni ezinamaxhaphozi nasezindaweni zokulima. Izilwane zihlala phansi kuphela.
Yiziphi izinhlobo zezinyamazane ezikhona?
Ngaphezu kwesilwane esikhulu senyamazane, kukhona ne-tamandua esenyakatho neseningizimu kanye nenyamazane ye-pygmy, engamasentimitha angu-20 nje ubude. I-tamandu yasenyakatho ihlala kusukela eningizimu yeMexico kuya enyakatho yePeru, i-tamandua eseningizimu eNingizimu Melika kuya enyakatho ye-Argentina. Inyamazane yepygmy anteater itholakala eningizimu yeMexico kuya eningizimu yeBrazil.
Ingabe izinyamazane ziba neminyaka emingaki?
Lapho zivalelwe, izinyamazane zingaphila iminyaka efinyelela kwengama-25, kodwa endle, ngokuvamile aziphili isikhathi eside kangako.
Behave
Ihlala kanjani inhlwathi enkulu?
Inyamazane enkulu iyisizungu, ngalinye lihlala endaweni ethile. Nakuba ingenayo imingcele emisiwe, ivikelwe nakanjani kuma-conspecifics.
Ama-anteater ahlala njalo futhi ahamba amabanga amade endaweni yawo efuna ukudla.
Bachitha ubusuku bonke becashe esikhotheni noma eziqwini zezihlahla ezingenalutho. Kuphela uma indawo yabo isezifundeni ezihlalwa abantu lapho beshintsha khona izimpi zabo ebusuku, ngoba bazizwa bephephile futhi bengaphazamiseki kangako. Izintuthwane aziboni kahle, kodwa ziyezwa kahle. Umqondo wokuhogela uthuthukiswa kangcono.
Zisebenzisa ikhala ukuze zithole izidleke zomuhlwa futhi zizivule ngezinzipho zazo ezinamandla. Bese bekhipha isisulu ezidlekeni ngolimi lwazo olude. Nokho, azilokothi zizibhubhise ngokuphelele izidleke, zivumele umuhlwa noma iqoqo lezintuthwane ukuba liphinde livuke.
Ngenxa yokuthi izinzipho ezisemilenzeni yazo yangaphambili zinde kakhulu, kufanele zihambe ngamaqupha. Ngenxa yalesi sizathu, ukuhamba kwabo kuvame ukuhamba ngokukhululekile futhi abasheshi kakhulu. Ngokugabavula okusheshayo, bangahamba amabanga amafushane kuphela.
Abangane nezitha zomdondoshiya
Amakati amakhulu kuphela ezizingela njengama-jaguar nama-pumas angaba yingozi kuma-anteaters. Nokho, zinamandla impela futhi lapho zisongelwa, zisukuma ngemilenze yazo yangemuva futhi zizivikele ngezinzipho zazo eziyingozi, ezicije insingo.
Isitha esikhulu sezilwane umuntu: izinyamazane ezinkulu zizingelwa uboya nenyama yazo. Izinyamazane ezihlala eduze nezindawo ezihlala abantu futhi eziguqule isikhathi sazo somsebenzi ebusuku zishayiswa izimoto njalo uma kuqhathaniswa.
Zizala kanjani izintuthwane?
Uma kuyisikhathi sokukhwelana kuphela lapho izinyamazane eziyiduna nezinsikazi zihlangana ndawonye isikhathi esifushane. Ngemva kokuqomisana nokukhwelana, bayahlukana futhi. Ezinsukwini ezingaba ngu-190 kuya kwezingu-195 ngemva kokukhwelana, insikazi izala insizwa. Inesisindo esingaba ngu-1500 amagremu futhi isivele ithuthukiswe ngokugcwele.
Iwundlu linejazi eliwugqinsi futhi libukeka njengenguqulo encane yabazali balo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, nokho, abancane banomugqa omhlophe wangemuva. Ezinyangeni ezine kuya kweziyisithupha, ingane ithwalwa ngumama kuphela emhlane, igaqa kuphela ukuze imunce. Izingane zikwazi ukuzimela kuphela lapho sezineminyaka emibili ubudala futhi zishiya unina. Ama-anteater avuthwa ngokocansi lapho eneminyaka emithathu kuya kwemine ubudala.
Zixhumana kanjani izinyamazane?
Izinyamazane ezindala azikwenzi msindo, yintsha kuphela ngezinye izikhathi ekhipha umsindo ogqamile.
