Amaxoxo anobuthi aphakathi kwamasele. Igama lebhayoloji liyixoxo elinobuthi. Kukhona negama lesithathu elihambisana kahle nabo: amaxoxo anombala.
Igama elithi poison dart frog livela kwinto engavamile: esikhumbeni salo, kunoshevu osetshenziselwa ukufaka ubuthi ezihlokweni zemicibisholo. Abomdabu babamba amaxoxo anobuthi. Bajikijela imicibisholo esikhumbeni samaxoxo futhi bawadubula ngezibhamu. I-prey hit izokhubazeka futhi ingaqoqwa.
Amaxoxo anobuthi atholakala kuphela eMelika Ephakathi eduze nenkabazwe, okungukuthi ehlathini lemvula. Isitha sabo esikhulu ngumuntu ngoba uma egawula amahlathi, ubhubhisa indawo yawo yokuhlala. Kodwa kukhona nesikhunta esingathelelwa amaxoxo anobuthi. Bafa ngakho.
Ahlala kanjani amaxoxo anobuthi?
Amaxoxo e-dart enobuthi mancane kakhulu, cishe amasentimitha ayi-1-5. Ngokuvamile zizalela amaqanda azo, okungukuthi, emaqabungeni ezihlahla. Lapho kuswakeme ngokwanele noma kumanzi ngisho nasehlathini elinemvula. Amaduna agada amaqanda. Uma ike yome kakhulu, bayayichamela.
Eyeduna ibeka oshobishobi abachanyuselwe emachibini amancane amanzi, ahlala ezimfoloko zamaqabunga. Onoshobishobi abakavikelwa wushevu. Zithatha cishe amasonto angu-6-14 ukuze zivuthwe zibe amaxoxo afanele.
Amaxoxo adla inyamazane equkethe ubuthi. Kodwa lokho akuwuhluphi umzimba wakhe. Ubuthi bube sekungena esikhumbeni samaxoxo. Lokhu kuzivikela ezilwaneni ezidla ezinye. Ubuthi bungenye yeziqine kakhulu emhlabeni.
Kodwa kukhona namaxoxo anombala angenabo ubuthi bemicibisholo esikhumbeni sawo ngokwawo. Bamane bazuze kwabanye, ngakho "babluff". Izinyoka nezinye izitha zixwayiswa ngombala bese zishiya ixoxo elingenabo ubuthi lodwa.
