ʻO Savannah (popoki ʻo Savannah English) kahi lūlū o nā pōpoki kūloko, i hānau ʻia ma ke ʻano he keʻa o ke keʻa ʻana i nā kauā ʻAmelika hihiu a me nā pōpoki kūloko. ʻO ka nui, ka helehelena hihiu, ka hanohano, ʻo ia ka mea e hoʻokaʻawale ai i kēia laha. Akā, pono ʻoe e uku no nā mea āpau, a he mea pipiʻi loa nā savannahs, kākaʻikahi a ʻaʻole kūʻai maʻalahi kahi pōpoki maikaʻi.
Mōʻaukala o ka lāhui
He hānai ia o kahi pōpoki home, a me nā pōpoki hihiu a i ʻole nā pōpoki ulu. Ua lilo kēia hybrid ʻano maʻamau i mea kaulana i waena o nā amateur mai ka hopena o nā makahiki kanaiwa, a i ka 2001 ʻike ka International Cat Association i ka Savannah ma ke ʻano he lāhui hou, a i ka Mei 2012 ua hāʻawi ʻo TICA i ke kūlana champion champion.
A ua hoʻomaka ka moʻolelo ma ʻApelila 7, 1986, i ka wā i hele ai ʻo Jadi Frank i kahi pōpoki Serval (na Susie Woods) me kahi pōpoki Siamese. ʻO Savannah ka inoa o ke keiki i hānau ʻia, ʻo ia ke kumu i hele ai ka inoa o ka lāhui holoʻokoʻa. ʻO ia ka lunamakaʻāinana mua o ka lāhui a me ka hanauna mua o nā hybrids (F1).
I kēlā manawa, ʻaʻohe mea maopopo e pili ana i ka momona o nā pōpoki hou, akā naʻe, ʻaʻole manuahi ʻo Savannah a hānau ʻia he mau keiki keiki nāna, a hōʻike ʻia he hanauna hou - F2.
Ua kākau ʻo Susie Wood i ʻatikala ʻelua i loko o nā makasina e pili ana i kēia laha, a ua ʻumeʻume lākou i ka manaʻo o Patrick Kelly, ka mea i moemoeā e kiʻi i kahi ʻano pōpoki hou e like me ka holoholona hihiu e like me ka hiki. Kāhea aku ʻo ia iā Suzy a me Jadi, akā ʻaʻole lākou hoihoi i ka hana hou aku i nā pōpoki.
No laila, ua kūʻai ʻo Patrick i nā pōpoki mai iā lākou, i hānau ʻia mai Savannah a kono i kekahi mau mea lawelawe lawelawe e komo i ka hānau. Akā, kakaikahi wale nō o lākou i hoihoi i kēia. ʻAʻole ia i hoʻokū iā Patrick, a ua hoʻopau ʻo ia i ka hoʻohuli ʻana i hoʻokahi mea hoʻohua, ʻo Joyce Sroufe, e hui pū me nā koa. I kēia manawa, hānau ka hānau keiki keiki F2, a ʻike ʻia ka hanauna F3.
I ka makahiki 1996, ua hoʻomohala ʻo Patrick lāua ʻo Joyce i kahi kūlana laulaha a hāʻawi ʻia ia i The International Cat Association.
Ua lilo ʻo Joyce Srouf i kahu holomua a ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia ka mea hoʻokumu. Mahalo i kona ahonui, hoʻomau a me ka hilinaʻi, a me ka ʻike hohonu o nā genetics, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā keiki i hānau ʻia ma mua o nā mea hoʻoulu ʻē aʻe.
Hoʻohui ʻia, ʻo kāna cattery kekahi o nā mea mua e hoʻolauna i nā keiki kime a me nā pōpoki momona. ʻO Joyce ka mea mua i hoʻolauna i ka lāhui hou i ka honua ma kahi hōʻike ma New York i 1997.
I ka lilo ʻana i mea makemake nui ʻia a makemake ʻia, hoʻohana ʻia ka lāhui no ka hoʻopunipuni, a ʻo kahi hopena i hala i kapa ʻia ʻo Simon Brody i hala ʻo F1 Savannahs no ka lāhui Ashera āna i hana ai.
Hōʻike o ka lāhui
ʻOi aku ka lōʻihi a lahilahi, ʻo nā savannahs ma mua o ko lākou maoli. Kaukaʻi nui ʻia i ka hanauna a me ke kāne, ʻo ka F1 mau pōpoki ka mea nui loa.
ʻO nā hanauna F1 a me F2 ka mea nui loa, ma muli o ka loaʻa o ke koko serval o nā holoholona hihiu ikaika. ʻO F1 ka mea kaulana a waiwai nui, no ka mea, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā mea āpau i nā pōpoki hihiu, a ʻo ka mea ʻē aʻe, ʻo ka mea liʻiliʻi i haʻi ʻia i ka like.
Hiki i nā pōpoki o kēia hanauna ke kaupaona i ka 6.3-11.3 kg, ʻoiai ma hope o ka piʻi ʻana o kekahi i ka 6.8 kg, ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi a ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi ma mua o ka pōpoki maʻamau, akā ʻaʻole like ka nui o ke kaupaona.
ʻO ke ola o ke ola a 15-20 mau makahiki. No ka mea paʻakikī ka loaʻa ʻana o nā keiki, a ʻano ʻokoʻa loa lākou, hiki ke ʻokoʻa ka nui o nā holoholona, ʻoiai i hoʻokahi ʻōpala.
Ke hoʻomau nei lākou e ulu a hiki i ʻekolu mau makahiki, ʻoiai lākou e ulu ana i ke kiʻekiʻe i ka makahiki mua, a laila hiki iā lākou ke hoʻohui i hoʻokahi kenimika. A lilo lākou i muscular hou i ka makahiki ʻelua o ke ola.
Pono e ʻike i ka palule, ʻike wale nā holoholona i ʻike ʻia i ke kūlana TICA, no ka mea, loaʻa kēia ʻano ma luna o ko lākou ʻili i nā kauā hihiu.
ʻO kēia nā kiko ʻeleʻele a ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele i hoʻopuehu ʻia ma luna o ke kapa. Akā, ʻoiai ke hele mau nei lākou me nā ʻano pōpoki like ʻole (e like me Bengal a me ʻAigupita Mau), nui nā kala kū ʻole.
ʻO nā kala maʻamau ʻole e pili pū me: harlequin, keʻokeʻo (point-color), polū, cinnamon, kokoleka, lilac a me nā kahakaha ʻē aʻe i loaʻa mai nā pōpoki kūloko.
Pili nui ʻia ka ʻohana savannah exotic me nā ʻano hoʻoilina o ka serval. ʻO kēia mau mea: nā kiko ma ka ʻili; kiʻekiʻe, ākea, kūkulu i nā pepeiao me nā ʻōlelo aʻoaʻo i hoʻopuni ʻia; mau wāwae lōʻihi loa; ke kū ʻana, ʻoi aku kona mau wāwae hope ma mua o ka mua.
He kiʻekiʻe ke poʻo ma mua o ka laulā, a kau i ka ʻāʻī lōʻihi, lokomaikaʻi.
Ma ke kua o nā pepeiao he mau kiko e like me nā maka. Pōkole ka huelo, me nā apo ʻeleʻele a me ka wēlau ʻeleʻele. He maka polū ko nā ʻōpala, akā i ko lākou ulu ʻana, hiki iā lākou ke lilo i ʻōmaʻomaʻo, i ka pala, i ke gula.
Hoʻonui a me nā genetics
Ma muli o ka loaʻa ʻana o nā savannahs mai ka hele ʻana i kahi serval hihiu me nā pōpoki kūloko (Bengal cats, Oriental Shorthair, Siamese a me Egypt Mau, hoʻohana ʻia nā pōpoki kūloko), loaʻa i kēlā me kēia hanauna kā lākou helu ponoʻī.
ʻO kahi laʻana, ʻo nā pōpoki i hānau pololei ʻia mai kēlā keʻa i koho ʻia ma F1 a 50% lawelawe.
He paʻakikī loa ka hanauna F1 i ka loaʻa, ma muli o ka ʻokoʻa o ka manawa o ka ulu ʻana o ka fetal i nā pōpoki a me nā kauā kūloko (65 a me 75 mau lā), a me ka ʻokoʻa o ka hanauna kūlohelohe.
Make pinepine a make paha a make paha nā keiki kime. Hoʻohui, picky loa nā kauā kāne e pili ana i nā wahine a hōʻole pinepine i ka pānaʻi me nā pōpoki maʻamau.
Hiki i ka Generation F1 ma mua o 75% Serval, Generation F2 25% a 37.5% (me kekahi o nā mākuna hanauna mua), a me F3 12.5% a ʻoi paha.
ʻOiai he hybrids, ʻeha mau i ka sterility, ʻoi aku ka nui o nā kāne akā he sterile a hiki i ka hanauna F5, ʻoiai he momona nā wahine mai ka hanauna F1. I ka 2011, ua nānā ka poʻe hānai i ka hoʻonui ʻole i ka sterility o nā pōpoki F6-F5 hanauna mua.
I ka noʻonoʻo ʻana i nā pilikia āpau, nā pōpoki o ka hanauna F1-F3, ma ke ʻano he kūlana, hoʻohana ʻia e nā pākū no ka hoʻoulu ʻana, a ʻo nā pōpoki wale nō ke kūʻai aku. Hana ʻia ka ʻaoʻao ʻē aʻe no ka hanauna F5-F7, ke waiho ʻia nā pōpoki no ka hoʻoulu a kūʻai ʻia nā pōpoki.
ʻAno
Hoʻohālikelike ʻia kēia mau pōpoki i nā ʻīlio no ko lākou kūpaʻa, hiki iā lākou ke hāhai i ko lākou mea nāna, e like me ka ʻīlio kūpaʻa, a hoʻomanawanui pono hoʻi i ka hele ʻana ma ka leash.
Hele aku a ʻoluʻolu kekahi mau savannah i nā poʻe, ʻīlio, a me nā pōpoki ʻē aʻe, ʻoiai e hoʻomaka paha kekahi i kāna e ke hele aku kahi malihini.
ʻO ke aloha i ka poʻe a me nā holoholona ke kī o ka hānai ʻana i kahi keiki keiki.
E hoʻomaopopo i ka likelika o kēia mau pōpoki e lele kiʻekiʻe, makemake lākou e lele i nā pahu hau, nā lako kiʻekiʻe a i ʻole ka luna o ka puka. Hiki i kekahi o lākou ke lele mai kahi a kahi kiʻekiʻe o 2.5 mau mika.
Eia kekahi hoihoi loa lākou, ʻike koke lākou pehea e wehe ai i nā puka a me nā lumi lole, a ʻo ka poʻe e kūʻai ana i kēia mau pōpoki e mālama pono lākou i ka pilikia o kā lākou mau holoholona.
ʻAʻole makaʻu ka hapa nui o nā sabana i ka wai a pāʻani pū me ia, a makemake kekahi i ka wai a luʻu hauʻoli i ka ʻauʻau i ka mea nona. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ma ke kūlohelohe, hopu nā lawelawe i nā rana a me nā iʻa, a ʻaʻole makaʻu lākou i ka wai. Eia nō naʻe, hiki i kēia mea ke lilo i pilikia i ka wā e ninini lākou i ka wai mai loko o ke pola.
Hiki ke hoʻohālikelike i nā kani a nā savannahs me ke kani ʻana o kahi serval, ka meow o ka pōpoki kūloko, a me ka alternation o nā mea ʻelua, a i ʻole kekahi mea ʻokoʻa i kekahi mea. ʻO nā hanauna mua i hana i nā kani e like me ka serval.
Eia nō naʻe, hiki iā lākou ke ʻū, a ʻokoʻa kā kā lākou kāʻā mai ka pōpoki kūloko, a like me ke ʻūlū a ka nahesa nunui. ʻO ka mea i lohe mua he mea makaʻu loa ia.
ʻEkolu mau mea nui e hoʻopili i ke ʻano: heredity, hanauna, a me ka launa ʻana. ʻOiai aia ka lāhui ponoʻī i kāna pae mua o ka hoʻomohala ʻana, hiki i nā holoholona ʻokoʻa ke ʻano ʻokoʻa loa kekahi i kekahi.
No nā pōpoki hanauna mua (Savannah F1 a me Savannah F2), ʻike maopopo ʻia ka lawena o ka lawelawe. ʻO ka lele ʻana, ka ʻimi ʻana, ka ʻano hahai holoholona i nā hiʻohiʻona o kēia mau hanauna.
E like me ka momona o ka hanauna F5 a me F6 e hoʻohana ʻia nei i ka hānau ʻana, ʻokoʻa ka hanauna o nā savannah i ka hana a ka pōpoki home maʻamau. Akā, ʻike ʻia nā hanauna āpau e ka hana kiʻekiʻe a me ka hoihoi.
ʻO ka mea nui i ka hāpai ʻana i nā savannah ka nohona mua ʻana. ʻO nā keiki i kamaʻilio me nā poʻe mai ka manawa o ka hānau ʻana, hoʻolilo manawa me lākou i kēlā me kēia lā, aʻo i ka hana no ke koena o ko lākou ola.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, i loko o hoʻokahi ʻōpala, hiki i nā kittens ke ʻano o nā ʻano like ʻole, hui maʻalahi kekahi me nā poʻe, makaʻu kekahi a pale aku iā lākou.
ʻO nā keiki e hōʻike ana i ka hana hilahila e hoʻoweliweli ʻia e nā malihini i ka wā e hiki mai ana a pale i nā malihini. A ʻo ka poʻe mai ka wā kamaliʻi e ʻike maikaʻi i ka poʻe a makemake e pāʻani pū me lākou, makaʻu iki i ka poʻe malihini, ʻaʻole makaʻu i nā wahi hou a hoʻomaikaʻi maikaʻi i nā loli.
No nā kittens, pono ke kamaʻilio a me ka launa pū ʻana i ʻāpana o nā hana o kēlā me kēia lā i mea e ulu ai lākou i holoholona maikaʻi a hānai ʻia. ʻO nā keiki i hoʻolōʻihi i ka manawa lōʻihi me ke kamaʻilio ʻole, a i ʻole i ka hui o ko lākou makuahine wale nō, ʻaʻole ʻike pinepine i ka poʻe a hilinaʻi liʻiliʻi iā lākou. Hiki iā lākou ke lilo i mau holoholona maikaʻi, akā ʻaʻole lākou e hilinaʻi i nā malihini a makaʻu hoʻi.
Hanai ana
ʻOiai ʻaʻohe lokahi o ke ʻano a me ka helehelena, no laila ʻaʻohe lokahi i ka hānai ʻana. Wahi a kekahi mau kahu hānai ʻaʻole pono lākou i ka hānai kūikawā, ʻoiai e paipai kekahi i ka hānai kiʻekiʻe wale nō.
Kūkākūkā kekahi poʻe i ka hānai piha a hapa paha me ka meaʻai maoli, me kahi protein i loko o 32%. Wahi a haʻi ʻaʻole pono kēia, a i ʻole mea ʻino hoʻi. Ke noʻonoʻo nei i ke kumukūʻai o kēia pōpoki, ʻo ka mea ʻoi loa e nīnau i ka mea kūʻai aku pehea lākou e hānai ai a pili pono i ka haku mele like.
He aha ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o ka savannah a me ka pōpoki bengal?
Aia nā ʻokoʻa ma waena o kēia mau laha. ʻO ka mea mua, ʻo ka pōpoki Bengal mai ka pōpoki ʻo Far East, a ʻo ka savannah e hele mai ana mai ka ʻApelika lawelawe, a ua kūlike ka ʻokoʻa o ka helehelena
ʻOiai ua uhi ʻia ka ʻili me nā nani, nā wahi pouli, ʻo nā kiko o ka pōpoki Bengal he ʻekolu kala, ka mea i kapa ʻia he rosettes, a ma ka sabana he monochromatic lākou.
Aia kekahi ʻokoʻa kino. He kino kuʻikuʻi ko ka popoki Bengal, e like me ka mokomoko a i ʻole ka mea pāʻani pōpeku, nā pepeiao liʻiliʻi a me nā maka nunui a puni. ʻOiai ʻo Savannah kahi mea pāʻani kinipōpō lōʻihi me nā pepeiao nui.
