ʻO nā Porcupines kekahi o nā holoholona i ʻike nui ʻia ma ka honua. ʻEleʻele a keʻokeʻo ka lōʻihi, ʻo nā nila koi ko lākou kāhea kāhea.
Wehewehe
I kēia manawa, ʻelima mau moʻokūʻauhau kā nā zoologists ma ka ʻohana porcupine, no ke kaʻina o nā rodents. Aia ka porcupine i nā nila nui loa ma waena o nā māmela āpau ma ka honua. ʻO nā nila ʻoi loa a ikaika ʻole hoʻi a hiki i 50 centimetres ka lōʻihi. Nalo lākou me ka hana ʻole a me ka pono ʻole o ka holoholona. ʻO nā nila nīnū he 15 a 30 mau kenetimita ka lōʻihi a ma kahi o 7 millimeter ka mānoanoa. Uhi ka hulu Porcupine i ke poʻo, ka ʻāʻī a me ka ʻōpū, he ʻeleʻele-hina hina. Akā ʻaʻole nā porcupine āpau i nā nila o ko lākou mau kua. Hoʻopiha piha ʻia ka Rothschild porcupine me nā nila liʻiliʻi. ʻO ke kaumaha Porcupine mai ka lua a i ka ʻumikūmāhiku kilogram.
ʻO nā Porcupines he 20 mau niho wale nō a me ʻelua mau incisors mua e ulu ana i loko o ke ola, a he ʻalani a melemele ka enamel.
Kahi noho
ʻO ka nohona o kēia mau koʻokoʻo e like me ka nila. Hiki iā lākou ke loaʻa ma ʻAsia a me ʻApelika, ma ʻAmelike, ʻAukekulia. Hiki nō ke loaʻa nā porcupines ma ʻEulopa, akā waiho ka ʻepekema i ka nīnau no ka ʻaoʻao hema o ʻEulopa ko lākou kūlohelohe a i ʻole lawe ʻia lākou e nā kānaka.
He aha ka mea e ʻai ai
ʻO kaʻai porcupine holoʻokoʻa kahi o nā meaʻai mea kanu. ʻAi hauʻoli lākou i nā aʻa like ʻole (ʻo kēia ke aʻa o nā mea kanu, nā laʻalāʻau, nā kumulāʻau). I ke kauwela, makemake ka holoholona i nā greens momona o nā mea kanu ʻōpio. I ka wā o ke kauwela, hoʻonui nui ʻia ka papaʻai me nā hua like ʻole a me nā hua (e laʻa me nā ʻāpala, nā hua waina, nā melemona a me nā melon, alfalfa a me nā mea hou aku). Hoʻokomo pinepine ʻo Porcupines i ka māla a me nā ʻāina mahiʻai a luku i ka ʻohi ʻana o nā kukama, kaʻuala a me nā ʻumeka. ʻOiai e ʻai ana i ka palaʻai, ʻoliʻoli nā porcupines i kona ʻono a hiki iā lākou ke hāmau me ka namunamu.
Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā Porcupines ma ke ʻano he pests, ʻaʻole wale no ko lākou komo ʻana i loko o ka ʻāina mahiʻai, akā no ka wahi nahele hoʻi, hana lākou i nā pōʻino nui loa. Makemake nui ʻo Porcupines i ka ʻili lāʻau me nā lālā ʻōpio, ʻai lākou i ka hoʻoilo. i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka pūnāwai, hiki i kahi porcupine makua ke luku aku ma mua o hoʻokahi haneli mau lāʻau olakino.
ʻEnemi kūlohelohe
ʻAʻohe o ka ʻenemi porcupine makua i ka hihiu. Hāʻawi kāna mau nila kuʻikuʻi i ka pale maikaʻi loa e kūʻē i nā predators (nā leopadi a me nā cheetah, a me nā tigika). I ka manawa e ʻike ai ka porcupine i ka makaʻu, hoʻomaka ʻo ia e aʻo aku i kona hoa paio me ka hehi nui ʻana a me nā hoʻoweliweli e hoʻoweliweli aku ana me nā nila. Inā ʻaʻole haʻalele ka ʻenemi, holo ka porcupine me ka wikiwiki i ka ʻenemi a kui iā ia me nā nila i koe i ke kino o ka ʻenemi. ʻO nā nila porcupine e hana i kekahi manawa i nā predators form (tigers, leopards) e hoʻouka i ka poʻe.
ʻO ka ʻenemi weliweli loa paha ka porcupine ke kāne. I kekahi mau ʻāina, ʻimi ʻia no kāna mau nila, a lilo i mea hoʻonani, a manaʻo ʻia ka ʻiʻo he mea ʻono.
ʻIkepili Hoihoi
- Ke ulu mau nei nā nila Porcupine. Ma kahi o nā nila kele i hāʻule, hoʻomaka koke nā mea hou e ulu, i kū ʻole ka holoholona me ka pale ʻole.
- Ma kahi o 120 tausani mau makahiki i hala aku nei, noho nā porcupines ma ka Urals. Ma nā kuahiwi ʻo Altai, noho nā porcupine ma nā ana weliweli a me nā Powa. Ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kahi paʻi anuanu (ma kahi o 27 tausani mau makahiki i hala aku nei), ua nalowale nā puaʻa porcupines mai ka ʻāina Altai.
- Kūlike ʻole i ka hilinaʻi nui, ʻaʻohe mea ʻono i nā nila porcupine. Akā ʻoiai hiki ke haumia nā nila, ʻo ka hoʻopili ʻana i ke kino o ka lawehala hiki ke hana i nā pilikia he nui, a ʻo ia hoʻi ke alakaʻi i ka mumū.
- ʻAʻole ola iki nā porcupines. ʻO ke kumu, hana lākou i nā hui liʻiliʻi i piha i ka wahine, kahi kāne a me kā lākou keiki. Hānau ʻia nā Cubs me nā maka hāmama a me nā nila kelehe, e wikiwiki koke ai. I kēia manawa ma kahi o hoʻokahi pule, hiki ke kui nui i nā nila o ka pēpē.
- Maikaʻi loa nā Porcupines i ka noho pio ʻana a me ka mālama kūpono hiki ke ola a 20 mau makahiki. I ka nahelehele, hiki i ka makahiki o ka porcupine ke kiʻekiʻe o 10 mau makahiki.
