Ama-parrot finches angabameleli bezinyoni ezihlala ezindaweni ezingavamile. Ezinye izinhlobo nazo zigcinwa futhi zifuywa eSwitzerland. Ahlukaniswa ngezimpaphe zawo eziyisisekelo eziluhlaza kanye nokuchaphaza okumangalisayo okubomvu, okuwolintshi, nokuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka.
Izinyoni ze-parrot ziyizimangaliso zombala we-filigree. Zinezingxenye eziluhlaza ezimpahleni zazo eziyisisekelo. Kodwa akuhlali kanjalo. Zinamakhanda abomvu, izihlathi eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, izindawo zesifuba, okuluhlaza okufiphalayo kube okusawolintshi nokubomvu. Ama-exotics anemibala acishe alingane ne-blue tit futhi anezindawo ezikude lapho adabuka khona. Ikakhulukazi iphuma emahlathini ashisayo, amanye futhi evela emasimini eziqhingini zase-Indonesia, eNew Guinea, naseziqhingini ezikude zaseNingizimu Sea. Izinyoni zasezindaweni ezishisayo zachazwa ngokwesayensi ngekhulu le-19 nelama-20. Izinyoni ezisahlala nabafuyi eSwitzerland namuhla futhi ezivezwa ngezikhathi ezithile emibukisweni zivela ekuthengisweni kwamanye amazwe kusukela engxenyeni yesibili yekhulu lama-20.
Inqwaba yezintaka zopholi ezikhethekile zafika eSwitzerland, okungukuthi ku-Romuald Burkard (1925 - 2004) eZurich futhi kamuva eya e-Baar ZG. Isazi sezokuhlalisana kwabantu saphatha imisebenzi ye-Sika futhi sagcina iqoqo eliyingqayizivele lopholi endlini yakhe yendiza yase-Baar eyaziwa kakhulu. Kodwa waphumelela nasekufuyeni izintaka zopholi. Isibonelo, ngo-1965 uHeinrich Bregulla (1930 - 2013) wamlethela izintaka zopholi zoqalo ayezibambe enyakatho yesiqhingi sasePhilippine iLuzon. I-Bregulla kanye ne-Burkard banesibopho sokuthi ama-parrot finches angasungulwa ngaphansi kokunakekelwa komuntu nhlobo. I-Bregulla yalandelela ubucwebe, uBurkard waphumelela ukuzalanisa inani lezinhlobo zezilwane okokuqala ngqa kuleli.
Ukuzijwayeza esizeni
Inkampani yobunjiniyela bakagesi i-Bregulla yaqala i-New Hebrides emkhunjini wezimpahla zabagibeli i-Thaitien ngo-1959, ihlela ukuhamba futhi ibukele izinyoni iyodwa izinyanga eziyisishiyagalombili. Lokho kwathatha cishe iminyaka engu-21. Kusukela ngo-1980 wazinza eVanuatu eSouth Seas futhi esuka lapho wenza ucwaningo oluhlukahlukene futhi waqoqa nohambo oluya eNew Caledonia, eFiji Islands, eTonga, eSolomon Islands, nasePhilippines. Manje njengoba izwe elizimele, iVanuatu yake yaba ingxenye yama-Anglo-French Hebrides.
Ekugcineni, iBregulla yaphathiswa umsebenzi wokuklama kabusha izingadi zezitshalo nezilwane eNew Caledonia. Waba ngowokuqala ukuletha i-parrot-madine enekhanda elinemibala, inkosi, i-manila, ne-bamboo parrot-madine iphila eYurophu. Izinyoni zangaphambili, ezincane ezivela kwamanye amazwe zase zafa kudala ngaleso sikhathi. Kwakungenakwenzeka ukuzithola ngokuzalanisa. Lokho kwakuhlukile ekuthengweni kweBregulla ngoba wayesekujwayele ukudla okunye eSouth Seas.
Ngenxa yezwe lakubo elishisayo, ama-parrot finches athanda ukufudumala, kodwa akuzona zonke izinhlobo. Isibonelo, i-Bregulla yakala izinga lokushisa lasebusuku elingamadigri angu-13 endaweni yokubamba i-bamboo upholi, ukuze u-Romuald Burkard wagcina ekwazile ukubika ukuthi lezi zinyoni zazingezwani futhi zindiza ngamandla endlini yezinyoni yangaphandle ngisho nasemazingeni okushisa apholile. .
