Isidleke umgodi owenziwa izilwane. Isilwane silala kulo mgodi noma sihlala kuwo njengoba kwenza thina bantu lapho sihlala khona. Izilwane eziningi zikhulisela amazinyane azo esidlekeni, ikakhulukazi izinyoni. Amaqanda noma izingane zibizwa ngokuthi “ama-clutches” ngoba umama wabekela amaqanda. Izidleke ezinjalo zibizwa ngokuthi "izidleke ezinamasango".
Izidleke ziyehluka kuye ngohlobo lwezilwane. Lapho zisetshenziselwa ukuchamisela amaqanda noma ukukhulisa amaphuphu, izidleke ngokuvamile zilayishwa ngokucophelela ngezimpaphe, ubulembu, nezinye izinto zemvelo. Izilwane eziningi zisebenzisa izinto ezivela kubantu njengezinsalela zendwangu nanoma yini enye ezingayithola.
Ezinye izinhlobo zezilwane ngokuzenzakalelayo zakha izidleke zamaphuphu azo. Akudingekile ukuthi bacabange isikhathi eside mayelana nokuthi bazozakha kanjani izidleke zabo. Kukhona nezilwane ezakha kuphela isidleke zokulala, njengama-gorilla nama-orangutan. Lezi zinkawu zakha ngisho nendawo entsha yokulala ubusuku ngabunye.
Yiziphi izinhlobo zezidleke ze-clutch ezikhona?
Izinyoni zivame ukwakha izidleke zazo ezihlahleni ukuze izilwane ezizingelayo zikwazi ukufinyelela kancane kumaqanda namaphuphu. Kodwa-ke, izilwane ezidla ezinye ezinjengama-squirrels noma ama-martens zivame ukwenza noma kunjalo. Izinyoni zasemanzini zakha izidleke zazo ogwini noma eziqhingini ezintantayo ezenziwe ngamagatsha. Abazali benyoni-ke kufanele bavikele amaqanda abo ngokwabo. Amadada, isibonelo, angompetha balokhu. Iziqophamithi nezinye izinyoni eziningi zakha izidleke zazo emigodini yezihlahla.
Izidleke zezinyoni ezinkulu ezidla inyama njengezinkozi ngokuvamile ziba phezulu futhi kunzima ukuzifinyelela. Laba-ke abasabizwa ngokuthi izidleke kodwa amasosha. Endabeni yama-eagles, lokhu kubizwa ngokuthi isidleke sokhozi.
Izinyoni ezincane ezikhulela esidlekeni zibizwa ngokuthi "i-nest stools". Lezi zihlanganisa amabele, izintaka, izinyoni ezimnyama, unogolantethe, nabanye abaningi. Nokho, izinhlobo eziningi zezinyoni azakhi nhlobo izidleke kodwa zivele zifune indawo efanelekayo yokubekela amaqanda azo, njengenkukhu yethu yasekhaya. Izilwane ezincane zigijima ngokushesha okukhulu. Yingakho babizwa ngokuthi "izidlamlilo".
Izilwane ezincelisayo zivame ukumba imigodi yezidleke zazo. Izimpungushe namabheji zaziwa ngalokhu. Izidleke zama- beaver ziklanywe ngendlela yokuba abazali nezitha kudingeke babhukude emanzini ukuze bangene esidlekeni. Amakati, izingulube, onogwaja nezinye izilwane ezincelisayo eziningi zihlala esidlekeni isikhathi esithile ngemva kokuzalwa.
Kodwa futhi kunezilwane eziningi ezincelisayo ezingakwazi ukwenza ngaphandle kwesidleke. Amathole, amathole, izindlovu, nabanye abaningi bavuka ngokushesha ngemva kokuzalwa balandele unina. Imikhomo iyizilwane ezincelisayo futhi. Nazo azinasidleke zilandela unina olwandle.
Izinambuzane zakha izidleke ezikhethekile. Izinyosi neminyovu zakha amakhekhe anezinhlangothi ezine. Izintuthwane zakha izindunduma noma zakha izidleke zazo emhlabathini noma ngokhuni olufile. Izilwane ezihuquzelayo eziningi zimba umgodi esihlabathini futhi zivumele ukufudumala kwelanga kufukamele amaqanda azo lapho.
