ʻO kekahi o nā hanauna mua loa i kona ʻohana ka emperor penguin. ʻO ka lālā nui loa o ka ʻohana. Ulu nā kāne makua mai 140 a 160 sentimita ke kiʻekiʻe, a hiki ke kaumaha i 60 kilokilo (ʻoiai ke kaumaha awelika o kahi kāne e pili ana iā 40 kilokilo). ʻOiai ʻoi aku ka pōkole o ka wahine makua, ʻo kona kiʻekiʻe mai 110 a 120 centimita. ʻO ke kaulike kaulike o ka wahine mai 30 a 32 kilokika.
Wehewehe
ʻO ke ʻano o ka plumage ke ʻano o kēia ʻano manu. Ke hoʻomaka nei mai ka piko o ka nuku, ʻaneʻane ʻeleʻele ke poʻo holoʻokoʻa, me ka ʻokoʻa o nā papalina a kokoke i ka hope o ke poʻo (i ka penguin emepera, he kala ko lākou mai ka melemele māmā a i ka ʻalani). Ke hoʻomau nei ke kala ʻeleʻele i ke kua, ka ʻaoʻao o waho o nā ʻeheu i ka hiʻu. ʻO ka umauma, ma loko o nā ʻeheu a me ka ʻōpū o ka emperor penguin keʻokeʻo. ʻAneʻane hina ka pīpī me ke koe o ke poʻo ʻeleʻele, nā papalina keʻokeʻo a me nā maka.
He hulu kūpilikiʻi loa ko Emepela penguins e pale aku ai i ka makani ʻino o Antarctica, a hiki i ka wikiwiki o 120 km / h. ʻO ka papa o ka momona subcutaneous ma kahi o ʻekolu kenimika, a pale i ke kino mai ka hypothermia i ka wā e ʻimi holoholona ana. ʻO ka hoʻolālā kūikawā o nā puka ihu ma ka nuku e ʻae ai i nā penguins ʻaʻole e lilo i ka wela wela.
Kahi noho
Noho wale nā penguins Emperor ma ka Pole Hema o ko mākou honua. Noho lākou i nā hui nui, a hiki i ka 10 tausani penguins. Hoʻolilo ka Penguins i ka hapa nui o ko lākou manawa ma nā kaola hau ma nā kihi o ka ʻāina. Noho nā Penguins, ma ke ʻano he rula, i nā hale mālama kūlohelohe e like me nā pali a i ʻole nā ʻau hau hau nui, akā me ka hiki ke komo i ka wai. Ke hiki mai ka manawa e hāpai i nā keiki, neʻe ke kolone i uka.
He aha kā lākou e ʻai ai?
ʻO ka papaʻai o ka penguin emperor, e like me ka nui o nā manu kai, nā iʻa, nā heʻe, a me nā crustacea planktonic (krill).
Hele nā Penguins i ka hopu holoholona i nā hui, a i kahi ala hoʻonohonoho e ʻauʻau i loko o kahi kula iʻa. ʻO nā mea āpau a ka emperor penguins e ʻike ai i ka ʻimi holoholona ʻana i mua o lākou i loko o ko lākou nuku. Ua ale koke ʻia ka mea pio liʻiliʻi i loko o ka wai, akā me ka lawaiʻa nui aku ua ʻau aku lākou i uka a ma laila lākou e ʻoki ai a ʻai. ʻAno maikaʻi nā Penguins a i ka wā o ka ʻimi holoholona ua hiki ka wikiwiki i 60 mau kilomika i kēlā me kēia hola, a ʻo ka hohonu o ka luʻu ʻana ma kahi o ka hapalua kilomika. Akā e luʻu wale nā penguins me nā kukui maikaʻi wale nō, ʻoiai lākou e hilinaʻi wale nei i ko lākou mau maka.
ʻEnemi kūlohelohe
Nui nā ʻenemi o nā manu nui e like me ka emperor penguin i ko lākou wahi maoli. ʻO nā Predators e like me nā leopadi sila a me nā kohola kohola he mea weliweli ia no nā manu makua ma ka wai. Ma ka hau, palekana ka poʻe mākua, ʻaʻole hiki ke ʻōlelo ʻia e pili ana i ka ʻōpio. No lākou, ʻo ka hoʻoweliweli nui mai ka petrel nunui, ʻo ia ke kumu o ka make no kahi kokoke i ka hapakolu o nā moa āpau. Hiki i nā chicks ke lilo i waiwai pio no ka skuas.
ʻIkepili Hoihoi
- I ka Pole Hema ʻoʻoleʻa, hoʻomehana ka penguins emepera ma ke kīkē ʻana iā lākou i loko o kahi puʻupuʻu paʻa a me ka mahana i ke kikowaena o ia puʻupuʻu e piʻi i 35 kekelē Celsius. A i hiki i ke kolone holoʻokoʻa ke pumehana, ke neʻe mau nei nā penguins a hoʻololi i nā wahi.
- ʻAʻole kūkulu nā Penguins i nā pūnana no ka hatching moa. Hana ʻia ka hana hoʻoulu i loko o ka pā ma waena o ka ʻōpū a me nā wāwae o ka manu. I kekahi mau hola ma hope o ka oviposition, hoʻoneʻe ka wahine i ka hua manu i ke kāne a hele i ka hopu holoholona. A no 9 mau pule, hānai wale ke kāne i ka hau a neʻe iki.
- Ma hope o ka hatching, hiki i ke kāne ke hānai i ka moa, ʻoiai ʻo ka ʻoiaʻiʻo ʻaʻole ʻo ia i huli no kahi o 2.5 mau mahina. ʻAno paʻakikī kēia, inā ʻaʻohe manawa o ka wahine i ka manawa o ka hatching, a laila hoʻonāukiuki ke kāne i nā glands kūikawā e hana i ka momona momona subcutane a i loko o kahi nuipa e like me ka like me ka kirimona momona. Me kēia kahi e hānai ai ke kāne i ka moa a hoʻi ka wahine.
